PROJECT SUMMARY – CORE A: ADMINISTRATIVE The Administrative Core A, directed by Dr. Kaufman is an essential component of this Program Project, providing logistic and strategic support for the Program Advisors and for every Project and Core Leader and coordinating smooth and regular communication between all the individual components. Core A will facilitate interactions and synergy between Projects and monitor use of core facilities by the investigators. Core A will manage video conference access for virtual communication between all sites. We would encourage live meetings, but virtual meetings will continue to provide better integration and input between the individual components who are not geographically contiguous. Core A also oversees the distribution of scientific core resources for individual projects, provides fiscal oversight and ensures SBP and NIH/NCI guidelines compliance by each Project and Core of the P01. Core A staff will prepare annual budget reports as required by SBP and the NIH/NCI and coordinate shipments between SBP, UCSD, USC, IDIBAPS, and McGill as required. Core A will coordinate yearly external and internal board reviews, quarterly P01 Steering Committee meetings and will maintain a website for the program. Core A will organize monthly meetings for the Working Group and associated scientists. Finally, Core A will manage a virtual or in person seminar series twice per month in which program members and invited speakers will present.
