Core A Abstract Core A will provide administrative support and oversight of the program project. An administrative assistant will provide support for financial management and administration of the program. The administrative core will also organize bi-monthly meetings to facilitate scientific exchange between program participants and provide a format for the evaluation of the scientific progress in individual projects. The core will also organize visits from members of both intramural and extramural advisors and contribute to a small seminar program. Funds are requested under Core A to support subscription fees for structural biology software support from the SBGrid and to maintain yearly software licenses for computer programs used for graphing, biochemical data analysis and for preparing high quality graphics.
