Oversight Committee Function
Director of University Shared Resources
The Director will lead the oversight, evaluation, and long-range planning
of University Shared Resources and serves as the central contact for shared
resources at OHSU. The Director serves as a liaison for fiscal issues between
research cores and Central Financial Services, working closely with the RDA Director
of Finance. The Director will serve as an advocate for University Shared Resources
within both the university and the community and will guide decisions regarding the
maintenance of current research cores, the establishment of new core services, and
submission of grants for shared instrumentation. The Director works in close
collaboration with the Core Oversight Committee and Core Directors on decisions
regarding maintenance, establishment, and fiscal support of University Shared Resources.
The Director reports directly to the Vice President for Research.
Core Oversight Committee
The Core Oversight Committee is the deliberative body that assists and
advises the Director in the development of policies regarding University Shared
Resources. The Committee will conduct annual evaluations of current core facilities.
Annual evaluations will ensure that cores meet both scientific and fiscal expectations
and continue to add value to the OHSU research community. The Oversight Committee may
recommend closure of Shared Resources that do not meet established goals, and may
advise investment in new instrumentation and/or new core services that are deemed of
sufficient value to the scientific community. The Oversight Committee will also assist
in decisions regarding financial support of shared resources. Final decisions regarding
closure or establishment of University Shared Resources rest with the Vice President
for Research.
The Core Oversight Committee includes membership as follows: the Director of
University Shared Resources; at least two current Core Directors; one major user of
OHSU Core facilities; one departmental chair or institute director who provides
ongoing support for university shared resources; one at-large OHSU faculty member
and one current member of the OHSU Research Council. The RDA Director of Finance
and one representative from OHSU Corporate Financial Services are non-voting members
of the Core Oversight Committee. Members will serve a two-year term and will rotate
off such that there is sufficient continuity between years (no more than one-third of
membership rotating off in a single year). Additional ad hoc members may be added as
needed for temporary terms or special assignments.
The Chair of the Core Oversight Committee and Director of University Shared
Resources will submit an annual report to the OHSU Research Council.
