The Administrative Core will support all administrative functions related to the program project as well as the four individual research projects and functions related to services being provided by the Proteomics and Biostatistics Core (Core B). Personnel and resources for administrative duties will be taken from this core. Dr. Weinberg will devote 0.6 calendar months to administration. Ms. Jennifer Galloway will devote 4.8 calendar months of her time to administrative duties for the Program Project. She will be the administrative contact person for all subproject personnel.
