How does the purpose of consortium Cores differ from those associated with PPGs or SCCORs, and how will their selection process differ?
The purpose of Cores within a consortium is to make services centrally available to consortium sites. This differs from a PPG or SCCOR Core that serves only the subprojects within each program or Center. PPG/SCCOR Cores are approved for funding based on the advice of the review panels, while consortium Cores will be selected by the NHLBI during the first-year planning phase, with input from the Steering Committees (composed of PIs and others; see the RFAs for specific membership) and an External Advisory Committee, based on the needs of the consortium and merits of the candidate Cores, and the funds available within the Consortium. The NHLBI anticipates that many proposals will need common Cores.
