MICHR ClinicalTrials.gov Support Services Review
March 12, 2024 - 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM ET
Did you know that PIs are advised to use clinicaltrials.gov for all randomized controlled trials even if they are not federally-funded or have no sponsored funding?
The Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research (MICHR) offers clinicaltrials.gov support services, including study registration and record update reminders, to study teams working on investigator-initiated clinical trials in the U-M Medical School. Currently, MICHR is conducting a pilot to offer clinicaltrials.gov registration services to newly approved non medical school studies.
This could be a huge help to you and your research.
Join us for a presentation that will cover ORCR's study start-up consultation service and provide a refresher on clinicaltrials.gov. The Office of Research Compliance Review (ORCR) is responsible for monitoring compliance with clinicaltrials.gov requirements for studies that are conducted outside the U-M Medical School.
