The Administrative Core (AC) is the hub of the MUSC SCOR. It serves as the central coordinating pointfor all SCOR activities. It influences each research component and brings the various componentstogether to form a cohesive, functioning unit. The AC is active in coordinating all of the outreach activitiesacross the MUSC campus, as well as nationwide with the SCOR advisory board and ongoingcollaborations with other SCOR centers The AC provides: (1) defined physical space, (2) unambiguousleadership, (3) a clear management and committee structure, (4) administrative and fiscal services, (5) ameans for ongoing communication, integration and quality control, (6) a structure for training andoutreach activities, and (7) coordination and supervision of the pilot research program. In the previousfunding period, the Administrative Core (AC) served as the backbone of the MUSC SCOR operations.The AC facilitated the work of the SCOR investigators by providing for integration, coordination, andevaluation of the various components and the pilot project program. The AC provided the organizationalframework for addressing emergent issues, budgetary concerns, and daily operational issues of theSCOR. The AC insured the integration of the SCOR within MUSC, in general, with the Center for Drugand Alcohol Programs, the Department of Neurosciences, and the Department of Psychiatry andBehavioral Sciences at MUSC, and with local and statewide officials and community treatment centers.Additionally, the AC developed and implemented internal and external quality control mechanisms toinsure that the MUSC SCOR and the AC are accomplishing their goals.
