## Abstract

ABSTRACT 
The investigators working together to form the Northern Ohio Alcohol Center (NOAC) are a group of world 
class investigators from a broad range of disciplines spanning basic and clinical sciences, from chemistry and 
biochemistry, metabolism and genetics, to clinical gastroenterology and hepatology. Our goal is to continue to 
develop strong interdisciplinary collaborations between investigators in Northern Ohio that will lead to 
advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms and pathophysiology of alcohol-induced tissue 
injury, with a particular, but not exclusive focus, on alcoholic liver disease (ALD), as well as the translation of 
these basic mechanisms to clinical practice. The Administrative Core of the NOAC will facilitate the 
accomplishment of these goals for research and clinical practice through the following specific aims: 
1) Encourage interactions between NOAC investigators, Core Directors and managers, as well as investigators 
in the greater scientific community with interests related to the thematic goals of the NOAC. The 
Administrative Core will facilitate these interactions via the organization of enrichment and educational 
programs including bi-monthly meetings and the annual retreat of the NOAC, as well as inviting world- 
renowned experts to visit NOAC as visiting scientists, 2) Provide oversight and enhance development of 
resources for the activities of the NOAC by organizing meetings of the Steering Committee, Internal and 
External advisory boards. 3) Manage the overall operating budget and prepare budget reports for Center grant 
renewals and 4) Follow progress of Research Components and Pilot Projects and assist with any management 
issues. Accomplishment of these specific aims by the Administrative Core will speed the delivery of 
discoveries towards the long-term goal of the NOAC to translate the novel findings of basic science regarding 
the specific mechanisms by which ethanol disrupts cellular and organ function into effective treatment 
strategies for alcohol-induced tissue injury.
