Project management in research is about facilitating the responsible conduct of research, maximizing the potential activities within the constraints of both institutional and funder/sponsor requirements and expectations, and anticipating and enabling project change for the dynamic science within a highly bureaucratic system. This session will look at research project management issues in a large or multi-institution setting, and use scenarios to allow participants to assess issues that come up that project managers or research administrators have to address.
