Hello,

I am looking for market compensation data for cryo-EM support personnel. I'd
greatly appreciate insight from any admins on this list whose portfolio
includes oversight of cryo-EM facilities.

Please feel free to contact me directly at

Subject: [core administrators network forum] FW: 9th Annual Academic Core
Facility Benchmarking Survey Now Open!

Happy Friday!
Did anyone else receive the email below from Agilent? This is the first I have
seen this survey - does anyone know how they use the data internally to
Agilent/iLabs? Does anyone in this group complete the survey and receive the
"individualized report"?
We do not use iLabs for our Core Management system so I am concerned with
completing this survey and giving them data on our core facilities. I
appreciate your feedback!
Thanks!

Dear ,
It's time again for our annual Academic Core Facility Benchmarking Survey!
If you manage a core, oversee core facilities, or directly participate in the
operations of a core facility, then this survey is for you!  The survey focuses
on the metrics of core operations, including finances, human resources and
marketing of a core.  We developed these metrics with the input of your fellow
colleagues to ensure that the data we collect are important and meaningful to
you.
The annual academic core facility market analysis will be released towards the
end of 2019 on the NEW benchmarking website
(here<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.agilent.com_en_academia_corefacility_core-2Dfacility-2Dbenchmarking&d=DwMFAg&c=k9MF1d71ITtkuJx-PdWme51dKbmfPEvxwt8SFEkBfs4&r=7l0aEz8iy5TWGjlvlBEBjEZw369-oj4Hd9_7ExbHAXI&m=ihv6JMVAkaefdroOh77BTy9-JmGAOhSOtq6j4UTbQ4Y&s=VQxY-bl6S_TqduhSltvChLR3TA3S2KtMDEdAV2YAMDc&e=>)
We now offer a customized report for your individual core!  This personalized
report will detail how you compare to your peers by geography, core lab
specialty, years in business, and much more.  Also included within the report
will be recommended actions you can take to impact your standing.
To take this year's survey, simply click the link below!  If you manage
multiple cores, please take one survey per core.  If you are interested in
hearing more about a customized report comparing your core to your peers,
simply reach out to
<email obscured><email obscured>>.
Please forward to any of your colleagues who you think would be interested in
participating.

This report has been done for many years and is always made public.  It fills
the gap after ABRF stopped doing the general survey.  The “personalization”
seems to involve mostly showing how your data fits.
I don’t see how using iLabs or not makes any difference.  It is a service to
the core community for which of course they get  a PR benefit.  They discussed
the survey with people in ABRF before doing it the first time, and as far as I
know were encouraged to do it.

Hi Heather,
I have found previous ilabs survey reports to contain a lot of useful
benchmarking information.  The survey results have, in the past, been shared
publicly and covered many areas about usage, subsidies, staffing, etc: probably
the most complete survey of cores being done.  I don’t recall seeing a survey
since they became part of Agilent, so remains to be seen how the data will be
used.

Did anyone else receive the email below from Agilent? This is the first I have

We do not use iLabs for our Core Management system so I am concerned with

Hi Heather,

One of our core administrators received this email too and we too do not use
iLab/CrossLab at our institution. The survey does show some useful trendlines
across cores generally. It is also true that this survey is a marketing tactic
employed by Agilent to begin an enrollment conversation.

Best Regards,

Both the ABRF Genomics Bioinformatics Research Group (GBIRG) and JAX recently
conducted general surveys of bioinformatics cores.  These surveys might have
data that could help answer your question.  Their abstracts and contact info

Subject: [core administrators network forum] Bioinformatics Core Facility
staffing level: Correlation to output from Genomics Core Facility?

The University did not establish a centralized bioinformatics core until a
couple of years ago. We are slowly growing that staff, as we transition from
the historic approach, i.e., labs hired their own in-lab bioinformaticist
(usually a postdoc) or collaborated with other faculty, or used services from
other institutions' bioinformatics core facilities.

I've been asked by the administration if the genomics/bioinformatics core world
has determined a standard ratio of how many FTE bioinformaticists are needed to
support the output of the genomics core.

I'm assuming that the answer is that the ratio is institution specific, but I
throw this out to y'all anyway.

Thanks.

Hi Amy,

Both the ABRF Genomics Bioinformatics Research Group (GBIRG) and JAX recently
conducted general surveys of bioinformatics cores.  These surveys might have
data that could help answer your question.  Their abstracts and contact info
can be found at
https://conf.abrf.org/concurrent-scientific-session-genomics-open-mic.

Rest of post

Best,

George

Subject: [core administrators network forum] Bioinformatics Core Facility
staffing level: Correlation to output from Genomics Core Facility?

The University did not establish a centralized bioinformatics core until a
couple of years ago. We are slowly growing that staff, as we transition from
the historic approach, i.e., labs hired their own in-lab bioinformaticist
(usually a postdoc) or collaborated with other faculty, or used services from
other institutions' bioinformatics core facilities.

I've been asked by the administration if the genomics/bioinformatics core world
has determined a standard ratio of how many FTE bioinformaticists are needed to
support the output of the genomics core.

I'm assuming that the answer is that the ratio is institution specific, but I
throw this out to y'all anyway.

Thanks.
Amy

Hi Amy,

At Northwestern our Bioinformatics team has been part of the NUSeq Core (for
Sequencing, as you can tell from the name). The team has 4 FTE
bioinformaticians. This team size can manage standard NGS (and array) analyses
to the most part. Using RNA-seq as an example, standard analysis means
providing a list of differentially expressed genes, their enriched GO terms,
and biological pathways.

Beyond these standard analysis, investigators also need custom analysis
specific for each project. This can be very time-consuming and we have no
answer as to how many staff members are required for that. Multiple departments
raise this issue so there is a huge demand for sure. We do custom analysis as
best as we can, but our priority is on standard analysis as projects are
constantly pushed from the sequencers.

More recent technologies like single-cell sequencing has changed this picture a
bit, as here the line between standard and custom analysis blurs. Beyond making
t-SNE plots every project asks different questions. I don't think there is a
good answer to your question even within a school.

Best regards!

We have a Core here as well, but staffing is based upon need.  There are
many, many people who simply do their own informatics as they are
perfectly capable of doing it.  Therefore, I’d be very surprised if you
get a different answer than “it depends” or something similar like what
I’m answering back.

Hi Susanna,

Cornell's core facilities charge the full negotiated indirect cost rate to
external customers.  We have a few customers with special requirements,
although for the most part we have been able to fit customer payment
requirements into existing workflow.  I think an additional surcharge as you
describe below makes sense, if this is not covered by using an external rate.

Rest of post

Regards,

Tami

Subject: [core administrators network forum] Invoicing Surcharges - any
experience?

Does anyone have a policy for adding an administrative surcharge on an external
invoice for special handling out of the normal invoicing process?   We are
experiencing a significant number of our external customers now utilizing
special accounts payable portals that require individualized attention to
upload. Not only is this labor intenstive, but the support for these portals
(all different links and user names, etc) seems to be generic email accounts
and you cannot speak with a real person.   I'd like to instittue a 1-2%
surcharge on customers requiring these individualized services to cover the
additional labor needed and the accompanying delay in payment that seems to be
a result of these new systems.    Please let me know...

Hi Susanna,

Our core rate development policy allows latitude for adding surcharges that
reflect additional work to provide service, including for example use of
specialized invoicing portals or other non-standard processes, credit card
transactions, electronic fund transfers, etc.  It all comes down to documenting
the added associated costs for time spent or third party service fees.
