The purpose of the Administrative Core is to facilitate the research program outlined in this proposal. To this end, it will: ? Provide centralized communication with all participants in the program ? Organize and convene monthly meetings of the project Pis and core directors ? Organize the semi-annual meetings of the Internal Advisory Committee ? Organize the annual meeting of the External Advisory Committee ? Coordinate annual progress reports to the NIND
