Administrative Core

The Administrative Core is responsible for oversight and coordination of all aspects of the scientific, administrative operations, coordination, and financial management of the MMPC-Live at UC Davis. This includes providing full customer support services, overseeing management and operation of the Center, and fostering interactions and synergism among the Animal Care, Metabolism & Metabolic Health, Physiology & Behavior cores. The Core will also work with VIBRANT-eligible users to facilitate priority and subsidized services, consultation, and experimental advice from Center scientists. In consultation with the Coordinating and Bioinformatics Unit (CBU), the Core uses MMPC-Live web-based business tools to facilitate client-provider interaction and help maintain Center budgetary and workflow records. The Core is led by the Center Director (Kent Lloyd) and assisted by a Business Manager (Renee Araiza), Project Navigator (Jenny Rutkowsky), Information and Data Manager (Dave Clary), and Biostatistics and QA/QC Officer (Lihong Qi).
