Manganese Health Research Program (MHRP)

Abstract

The Administrative Core includes Dr. Michael Aschner of Vanderbilt University Medical Center as the Principal Investigator (PI), and an Administrative Assistant. The Administrative Core is involved in all facets of the MHRP, ensuring proper allocation of funds to the various Research and Support Cores, required financial reporting to the Army, facilitation of the communication between the various CPIs (Core Principal Investigators), timely reporting of the results, communication with all relevant Department of Defense (DoD) personnel, resolving issues related to conflict of interest, and general coordination between the various Cores. A key early objective of the Administrative Core is to allocate, at the direction of the Steering Committee, remaining funds to additional research projects identified. The Administrative Core is advised by the CPIs of the MHRP. Advice includes issues of scientific merit, oversight of ethical issues associated with animal and human subjects, review of potential additional projects, as well as review of funded projects and progress reports.
