The overall challenge of the POCRC is to maintain a high level of integration among scientists and rapidly communicate novel discoveries throughout the group. To address this challenge, the POCRC has established a program infrastructure made up of four essential resources.  These resources are referred to as Research Cores, the main purpose of which is to facilitate interaction and communication between the SPORE projects, committees, Developmental Research and Career Development Programs.  Descriptions of the Research Cores are included below.
