Office of Research Administration
The mission of the CSBS Office of Research Administration (ORA) is to promote and assist CSBS research in general, and extramural funded research in particular. The ORA is the first point of contact for CSBS faculty research projects whether the prospective funding sources are federal, state, local, or private organizations.
