  9. Research Support Organization at USC University Level (President/Provost) School Level (Deans) Department Level (Academic/Institute) (Chairs/Directors) Research Centers and Core Resources

  10. Southern California Clinical & Translational Science Institute Provides Research Expertise, Support for Translation, Human Studies & Clinical Trials, Statistics & Data Management, Training. • Clinical Translation • Research Development • Translational Research Informatics • Community Engagement • Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Resources • Education, Career Development, and Ethics • Preclinical Translation and Regulatory Support • International Center for Regulatory Science(Frances Richmond)

  11. Research Core Facilities & Resources Two Types: 1. Laboratory Cores • Provide specialized instrumentation and technical services, not possible to support in a single lab • Examples: Imaging Lab, DNA Sequencing Lab, Proteomics Lab 2. Specialized Expertise • Provide disciplinary expertise and services • Examples: Statistical Support, Regulatory Support

  12. Research Core Resources at USC • Usually located and managed within a Department • Each Core Resource is directed by a faculty member with expertise in the technology or discipline • School or Department pays start-up costs • Ongoing School or Departmental subsidy • University often provides for equipment start-up or equipment upgrades • Investigator pays fee for service • Open equally to all investigators

  13. Grant Supported Core Resources • Many core resources are supported by “Center” grants or “Core” grants (usually NIH) • Each grant supported “Module” is directed by a senior faculty member with expertise in the area • Grants pay salary of technical staff, support instrumentation maintenance, provide some centralized supplies – therefore, service fee is reduced • May also buy pieces of the core resource on a grant • Priorities for use (who is served, and who is served first), and access (what projects are first)
