The Administrative Core (BCM, UAMS & Duke) led by Dr. Yong Li from BCM, provides administrative, scientific, fiscal, and logistical oversight over the whole CAP-IT MGUS.
The Administrative Core also provides clerical support, coordinate interactions between the Informatics Core and Research Projects, and organize regular investigator meetings inside and outside the CAP-IT MGUS. It will bridge the research activities within the CAP-IT MGUS and the NCI CAP-IT program officials to promote collaboration, ensure that the CAP-IT MGUS’s work contributes effectively to issues relevant to the CAP-IT mandates, and maximize dissemination and application of the program's research findings.
Primary objectives:
Manage and communicate the research activities within the CAP-IT MGUS.
Promote collaborations on MGUS prevention and interception between the Research Projects and the Bioinformatics Core within the CAP-IT MGUS and collaborations between the Center members and outside investigators.
Organize annual meetings and other network activities.
Conduct effective and contextually appropriate outreach.
Evaluate existing Research Projects and develop new ones.
