Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Not applicable to direct patient participation in this core grant, but the overall project involves human pain research across collaborating sites.
✕Less likely to help
Direct patient participation in this specific administrative core is unlikely since the grant funds coordination activities rather than patient-facing interventions.
What this research studies
This grant funds an Administrative Core that builds the governance, reporting, and coordination infrastructure needed for a large, multi-site U19 project. It describes a project manager and cross-site teams to manage tissue recovery, quality control, banking, resource sharing, and milestone tracking. The core also interfaces with PRECISE Centers and emphasizes annual progress reports and milestone-based funding decisions. Though the scientific aims are described elsewhere, this core enables collaboration, compliance, and efficient data and resource flow among the participating sites. It lays the foundation for timely, organized progress toward the project’s human-pain research goals.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could benefit from more efficient, timely, and rigorously coordinated research leading to faster translation of pain biology findings into better therapies.
How similar studies have gone: Successful multi-site cores have previously supported large translational projects by improving data sharing, governance, and milestone tracking.
