# Core A: Administrative Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · YALE UNIVERSITY · 2020 · $101,331

## Abstract

A Program Project of the complexity as the one introduced in this application requires an Administrative Core
(Core A). An important goal of Core A is to promote the intellectual relationship between all projects as the
studies begin to yield data. Responsibilities include the facilitating the communication among all projects and
cores, data analyses, statistics, financial management and administrative services needed on a day-to-day
basis for all program participants. Key functions are also to establish program priorities, optimize the sharing of
resources among Projects and Cores, generate routine reports to assess progress with respect to stated goals,
communicate scientific advances and progress at monthly investigator meetings, promote scientific
relationships and communicate with the members of the Scientific Advisory Committee. The Administrative
Core will be headed by Dr. Dixit, who is a NIA funded investigator and brings many years of experience at
managing multiple NIH R01 awards. Since his research training at NIA-Intramural Program, he has pursued
studies in transgenic mouse models as well as humans (CALERIE-II) to investigate the role of immune-
metabolic interactions that control age-related inflammation and immune-senescence. Core A will be
supervised by the Executive Committee (Drs. Kliewer, Scherer and Horvath). The PPG will have scientific input
from both an Internal (Drs. Joel Elmquist, Ruslan Medzhitov, Gerald Shulman) and External Advisory
Committee (TBN) whose communication will be handled through the Administrative Core. Dr. Dixit will also
organize regular meetings among the PPG participants to assure that projects are well coordinated. Aim 1:
Communication and manage the PPG and its relationships within the Yale and UT Southwestern communities.
Aim 2: Manage the PPG relationships external to Yale and UTSW Medical Center. Aim 3: Data interpretation
and consultations with scientific advisory board for development of plans for future studies.
