PI / RA HR Management

Managing a research program is similar to running a complex business. The demands made on a Principal Investigator and staff seem overwhelming at times. The Principal Investigator (PI), Research Administrator and Clinical Research Coordinator must have not only the research expertise to conduct the research, but must understand complex funding agency regulations, employment laws and policies, and manage staff as well. This site is designed to assist the PI and Research Administrator with the management of staff, budgeting and other related responsibilities of grant or contract projects. It provides,

• guidance to create a staff structure for research projects
• direction in budgeting and fiscal management of grant or contract funds
• management practices to orient, develop, provide performance feedback, and retain productive employees
• resources available when problems arise
