CORE A – Administrative Core This Conte Center – Understanding latent cause inference in health and illness – will bring together 10 highly accomplished investigators from two neighboring institutions, Princeton University and Rutgers University, who will employ a multidisciplinary computational-translational approach to investigate latent cause inference. In keeping with the team's strong collaborative tradition and years of communication around the ideas at the heart of this proposal, each Project and Core will be co-led by multiple investigators, each of which is involved in more than one component of the Center. Within this highly integrated setting, the Administrative Core A will provide administrative oversight and support to all Projects and Research Cores to coordinate their activities, facilitate data-sharing, and foster close collaborative links and synergy that will be critical to the success of the Center. Core A has the following three aims: Aim 1 - Facilitate scientific oversight through effective communication and coordination. Core A will provide structure and robust mechanisms for communication and the exchange of data, ideas and discoveries through regular videoconferences and face-to-face meetings. The Core will also provide support for all administrative responsibilities of the Center, including monthly budget reports, annual allocation and re- allocation of budgets, progress reports, and coordinate meetings among all investigators. Aim 2 - Administer and oversee data-sharing within the Center and with NIMH. Core A will create a secure, shared-resource repository where all data and code can be shared freely across Projects and Cores, oversee submission of resources into this repository, and establish a system for obtaining data for analysis by other researchers. The Core will also oversee and facilitate data-sharing of human subjects data on the NIMH Data Archive twice yearly, as well as sharing of data and code from published papers using the Open Science Framework. We are committed to open science and view data and resource sharing as integral to our goals. Aim 3 - Coordinate training and outreach. Core A will develop and implement training programs for research assistants, students, and postdoctoral fellows; develop and administer a summer undergraduate research program in coordination with similar existing programs at Princeton and Rutgers; and coordinate public outreach of Center discoveries including the development and maintenance of a website to provide a hub for sharing findings and resources with the broader scientific community and the general public.
