Greetings, PIs and Research Administrators, Today is National Research Administrator Day! A deserving shout out to you all! You are Amazing! And Thank You for everything you do in support of our Research, Scholarship and Creative Arts at UVM. We all made history last year by eclipsing the $200M mark for the first time ever in sponsored projects! This was accomplished by your heroic efforts to prepare, submit, accept, set-up, report, collect, and comply with all aspects of the sponsored projects lifecycle. It took countless conversations, emails, and hours to accept 711 awards for $204M running thru SPA. These are now the words I use to describe you all, as research administrators! ü Facilitators ü Negotiators ü Creators ü Go-getters ü Navigators ü Mediators ü Cooperators ü Innovators ü Game changers ü Motivators ü Advocators ü Risk-takers ü Orchestrators ü Communicators ü Leaders ü Dependable Join the celebration and share on Twitter: #researchadministratorday<https://twitter.com/hashtag/researchadministratorday> Have a Great Day!
