The Administration Core provides broad support to all of the other cores and projects within the Burn Trauma Center. It is responsible for the administrative oversight related to the principal investigator's activities. An advancement of this core is the establishment of a central hub for communication and dissemination of guidelines, tools, and standard operating procedures (SOPs), which can be accessed and utilized by the Center investigators and others in the field of burns and trauma. A complex program of this scale requires a well-organized, highly effective team of administrative and technical staff whose strength is a detailed knowledge of the multiple steps involved in achieving the goals of the research center. The Administration Core is an integral component of the overall strategic management plan. Staff in this core is instrumental in implementing the administrative management plan set by the principal investigator and core/project directors and co-directors. The administrative management plan includes a coherent set of strategies, projects, and budgets that will allow the creation of an interactive research network. The core facilitates an aggressive program for systematic sharing of knowledge, ideas, and activities within the Center. Examples of interaction that require individuals to work together in achieving the goals and objectives of the research center include: face-to-face meetings, conference calls, Center web site, manuscripts and publications.
