successful establishment and operation of the entire program. All costs for administrative support for the Cores
and Projects are included here. Dr. Timothy Blackwell will assume ultimate administrative responsibility for the
management of this Core. Administrative and clerical support for the entire program will be shared by all
Project Leaders, Core Leaders and investigators. This Core will provide and maintain all of the administrative
space and functions for the entire program, including but not limited to, offices for all investigators, an
administrative area with secretarial and administrative support, a copy/work room, and a conference room with
up to date audiovisual amenities. Administrative functions will include ordering of supplies and equipment,
maintenance of all records, keeping and monitoring of budgets, maintenance of the personnel database for
grant effort, interactions with University administrative offices and the NIH regarding budgetary and other
administrative matters, and scheduling and organizing meetings and presentations. This Core will support all
of the computer hardware and software resources for the program, and coordinate data storage and database
management. This Core will coordinate and support the activities of the Internal Advisory Board and the
External Scientific Advisory Board. The basic functions and objectives of the Core include: quality management
of program resources, integration of the program, oversight of deliverables within the timeframe, assistance
with data management, and leading the vision. To achieve these objectives, detailed plans are presented for
administrative structure and leadership, project management, advisory boards, review mechanisms, and
