The Administrative Core is responsible for running the network. Its members pull together colleagues, facilities and relationships across northern New England in a concerted effort to broaden and deepen clinical and translational research that responds to the region’s most critical needs. The goal of Administrative Core is to accelerate research aimed at enhancing the health of rural New Englanders through the following activities:

• Facilitate coordination and oversight of all Key Component Activities (KCAs)
• Integrate clinical and translational research activities
• Establish advisory groups with clear roles and responsibilities
• Oversee a vibrant clinical/translational seminar program
• Coordinate regional meetings and retreats
• Review evaluation metrics and continuously improve the network and its operations
• Ensure regulatory compliance

Administrative Coordinators for the network are at both MMCRI and UVM:
