## Abstract

Project Summary_Abstract of the Administrative Core 
 The Administrative Core will support a core organizational structure, management approach, and 
communication infrastructure to maximally benefit from a broad array of stakeholders and ensure efficient and 
successful coordination and integration of the activities across all project Cores. Our proposed organizational 
structure and management approach has been designed based on organizational models that have been 
shown to promote effective collaboration among geographically dispersed groups. Importantly, we have 
already successfully used similar models for working with affiliates, board members, and other collaborators 
across the US and internationally within our national NIH-funded P30 “Center of Excellence”, the Center for 
Technology and Behavioral Health (CTBH; PI: Marsch). We will routinely assess how well the structure and 
functioning of activities is working and flexibly revise our plan of operation, as needed. 
 The Administrative Core will have the following Specific Aims: Aim 1a: To provide scientific and 
programmatic leadership to ensure efficient and successful coordination and integration of the 
activities across the proposed activities. We will support a core organizational structure and management 
approach to maximally benefit from each collaborator's involvement and enhance decision-making regarding 
the direction of proposed activities. Within the organizational structure of the Administrative Core, the 
Director's Office, in collaboration with administrative support personnel, will help ensure the successful 
coordination, synergy, and efficiency of activities across Cores. The overall programmatic structure and 
management approach has been designed to ensure scientific leadership and direction, under the oversight of 
the Director's Office, that effectively promotes interdisciplinary scientific interactions, provides internal quality 
control of research activities, collaborative publications and presentations, and collaborative capacity building 
activities, while maximally utilizing the research capabilities of the applicant team. 
 Aim 1b: To provide a novel infrastructure to enhance synergy among an interdisciplinary expert 
team by facilitating productive communication, centralization of knowledge and resources, and 
integration of methods and results across research activities. We will support a multi-faceted, 
technology-based infrastructure to ensure productive communication and collaboration among team members 
(including sharing of common protocols/standard operating procedures, facilitating cross-site 
analyses/synthesis of results, and supporting collaborative publications). These collaborations will enhance 
the quality and types of analyses undertaken and the resulting conclusions and recommendations and provide 
opportunities for development and dissemination across research activities. They will also enhance the 
efficiency of research to promote a g...
