Project Management
Management of
the SSGCID is overseen by a Scientific Leadership Team
comprised of the primary PI (from Seattle BioMed) and the PIs from the sub-contracting institutions (Emerald
BioStructures, University of Washington, and Pacific Northwest
National Laboratory), with the assistance of an overall Program Manager and
Site Managers at Seattle BioMed, Emerald and UW. The SSGCID management
structure and organizational chart can be viewed
here.
Activities within
the SSGCID project are divided into seven
teams distributed between
the four sites:
- Project Management Team
- IT & Data Management Team
- Target Selection Team
- Cloning & Expression Testing Team
- Protein Production Team
- Crystallization Team
- Data Collection & Structure Solution Team
An advisory board called the Scientific Working Group (SWG) makes recommendations on efficiently generating protein structures in a high throughput environment, and provides advice on the structural genomics needs of the scientific community.
The members of the SWG have been recruited from among eminent scientists outside of the SSGCID and include members that provide a broad geographical and domain representation of the relevant scientific community. They represent individuals from industry and academic institutions in the US and Europe, as well as developing countries that face a disproportionate burden from infectious disease.
