NIH Funding

  • NIH budget currently under continuing resolution (FY

11 – 1.5%) until November 18

  • creates the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

– House ‐ $31.7 billion

  • Increase of $1B, 3.3% (matches president’s request)

Cores

(www.bumc.bu.edu/cores; www.bu.edu/cores)

  • Centralization of cores (scheduling and billing

software, administrative centralization for billing (Alexis Corazzini); developing reporting

  • Core Advisory Committee

– Developing a process for review of existing cores – Beginning to review ideas for new cores: biostatistics/bioinformatics – Others? : proteomics/mass spec, enzyme bank on campus, sequencing, metabolomics, etc)?

_________________________________

Cores (cont)

  • Review finances of all cores (underway)

– understand existing subsidies and needs

  • Reviewing space utilization by cores

– Consolidation of space (leveraging/sharing technical support)

  • Reviewing instrumentation needs

– Purchased new Aria cell sorter (Flow Core) – Helped purchase Zeiss 710 NLO 32 channel multiphoton microscope (T Haydar, L8) – new core to increase our imaging capabilities

Update on LASC

  • Worked with LASC (Jim Levin) and ORC to

establish and engage LASC animal user groups

– discuss issues of importance to the users – rates and rate changes are aired

  • Discussions with MUAC ‐ ready to initiate re‐

derivation of all colonies with questionable health status

– Process defined – Discussing financial support and costs to investigators

LASC Update

_________________________________

  • Currently undergoing a space review (Jacobs

Consulting) with particular attention to:

– More functional mouse housing and procedure spaces – W7,8,9 and 670 – Design and build‐out of behavioral space – M9 – Increased space for USDA regulated species – Increased ABSL‐2 space – Consolidation of instrumentation (imaging, etc.) – Design plan for new zebrafish facility – R8 (currently slated to be started in mid 2012)

Oral cancer is one of the most pernicious epithelial malignancies in the world, whose incidence is on the rise. Despite progress in diagnosis and treatment of oral cancer, the 5-year survival rates over the past twenty years have remained at about 50%. Oral cancer disproportionately affects underserved minorities in the US and in developing countries. The Oral Cancer Research Initiative (OCRI) is a focused multidisciplinary collaborative that brings together basic scientists, clinicians, public health researchers, engineers, chemists and computational biologists to work on diverse issues related to oral cancer. Our mission: to elucidate the mechanisms of oral cancer development and progression and to expedite translation of research findings toward diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cure of oral cancer. Our multidisciplinary effort will align research on oral cancer with societal needs.

Mission: The CRC supports collaborations among clinical, public health and basic science researchers to study oral and systemic

  • conditions. It provides new research opportunities for faculty,

postdoctoral researchers, residents, as well as graduate and undergraduate students. The CRC will:

  • provide clinical researchers with access to patients for studies of
  • ral conditions and diseases, as well as oral complications of

systemic diseases;

  • facilitate collection of tissue specimens from the oral cavity including

saliva, pellicle, scalpel and brush biopsies and swabs of oral mucosa.

*The CRC has received partial support for its operations from the CTSI.
