and evaluating progress; 
2) provide a mechanism to replace any key individuals who may leave; 
3) provide educational/training opportunities for students at all levels and junior faculty members; 
4) provide biostatistical support for investigators; 
5) provide `chain of custody' tissue/sample handling and storage; and
