The central office of the CRC will manage all administrative and organizational tasks related to this research centre. Z01 (Stefan Engelhardt & Stefanie Dimmeler) will be a permanent contact for all scientists, providing them with guidance in requesting and handling of funds, the organization of meetings and conferences, access to career support programs and measures that facilitate the compatibility of family life and career. It will supervise the implementation and success of these activities and encourage those to participate who are in need.
As a hub for PhD students, project Z01 will ensure smooth and unbureaucratic access to existing and planned training activities such as workshops, lab visits and student exchange programs in the CRC. For a broader scientific audience in the field (i.e. also addressing undergraduate or post-PhD scientists), project Z01 will organise meetings, seminars and conferences with invited speakers. All scientists in this CRC who seek collaboration with platform technology labs (Z02, Z03) will receive administrative support, e.g. how costs for Z02 service are charged and how legal issues of data exchange between institutions are managed.
The outreach via website or press releases is another task taken over by Z01, since this will raise recognition by other scientists and may initiate fruitful scientific collaborations or future recruitments. Not least, we will inform the general public about our activities through this website and other media, thereby raising the awareness for cardiovascular diseases and our research.
