PPGs typically consist of several interrelated research projects, each led by a different investigator. These projects are unified by a central theme or goal and are supported by core facilities and shared resources. The structure of a PPG often includes:
Administrative Core: Manages the overall coordination, communication, and administration of the program. Research Projects: Individual projects that address specific aspects of the central theme. Core Facilities: Shared resources that provide essential services, technologies, and expertise to support the research projects.
