Identifying subjects for study inclusion is often a time consuming task. We expedite this process through our Enhanced Subject Recruiting process. Researchers will work with us to create queries taking into account basic inclusion / exclusion criteria for studies to pre-screen patients of interest.
REDCap is a secure, web-based application for building and managing online surveys and databases. Using REDCap's stream-lined process for rapidly developing projects, you may create and design any research project or send out surveys with ease.
The Greater Plains Collaborative (GPC) is a clinical research network designed to improve healthcare outcomes through collaborative, patient-centered research. The initiative spans 10 states and serves a population of over 38 million patients across the United States. GPC focuses on advancing healthcare by providing research infrastructure, support, and resources to investigators, clinicians, and institutions.
N3C is one of the data sharing networks we participate in.
The National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C) is a partnership among the NCATS-supported Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program hubs, the National Center for Data to Health (CD2H)(link is external), and NIGMS-supported Institutional Development Award Networks for Clinical and Translational Research (IDeA-CTR), with overall stewardship by NCATS. Collaborators will contribute and use COVID?19 clinical data to answer critical research questions to address the pandemic.
