# Admin Core A

> **NIH NIH P01** · UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA · 2020 · $153,500

## Abstract

ABSTRACT:
Core A (Administrative Core) is housed within the University of Arizona Health Sciences (UAHS) and is led by
the Program's Principal Investigator, Stephen M. Black, PhD, who will provide essential administrative support
and ensure overall direction and organization of the entire Program. In addition, this Core will provide
accounting support to ensure appropriate fiscal and scientific oversight, monitoring and compliance with federal
and institutional grant management regulations, the latter through several formal mechanisms. The objectives
of the Administrative core are: (i) to centralize all administrative actions and financial recording keeping; (ii) to
provide statistical and data processing support for the projects; (iii) to prepare scientific and financial reports as
required by the university and the NHLBI; (iv) to ensure that the PPG research meets the highest standards
through periodic review by the internal and external review panels; (v) to facilitate the use of common
resources; (vi) to provide the projects and cores with a review of all expenditures on a monthly basis as well as
dealing with University Accounting and Grants offices concerning grant budgets; (vii) to provide the
communication venues that foster exchange of scientific information and ideas and allow seamless
communication between PPG scientists (viii) to coordinate the travel arrangements and to have quarterly face-
to-face meetings with UAHS PPG scientists. As this communication is vital to the success of the program, Core
A personnel, will organize video conferencing with any individuals that are temporarily off campus to ensure i)
weekly meetings of individual Project and Core teams, ii) biweekly meetings of the Program Committee (led by
Core A Leader and PPG PI) where Project and Core leaders discuss scientific and administrative matters, and
iii) regular monthly research seminars that will allow PPG investigators to present their work in progress to
other researchers. Core A personnel will also facilitate workflow between PPG investigators, especially with
regard to Cores B, C, & D experiments and the critical exchange of reagents between Projects. Thus, Core A
will coordinate the inter-project and inter-core arrangements and evolve new arrangements as deemed
necessary for the scientific progress of the Program Project as a whole. Together, these coordinated
administrative services will ensure optimal purchasing practices, facilitate frequent and productive
communications between PPG scientists, and promote the high quality scientific interactions necessary to
meet the goals of this translational PPG.
