The Coordinating Center (CC) is staffed with individuals who have very diverse, yet complementary, expertise that are necessary to execute the activities of the CC. The responsibilities of the CC are:
- Facilitating interactions and
communication by organizing meetings and retreats, distributing announcements, and maintaining a website
with databases of vital research resources,
- Supporting research within the BCBC by supporting core facilities
and, when necessary, developing new cores,
- Jump-starting new research by young investigators through a Pilot
and Feasibility (P&F) Grant Program, and
- Bringing different groups of scientists together within the
BCBC through a Program of Collaborative Bridging Projects.
