REDCap Tufts vs. Other REDCap | |
|
It has recently come to the attention of the IRB office that there may be a misunderstanding regarding REDCap and what would require additional Information Security Office (ISO) review. REDCap Tufts is the local Baystate REDCap database and does not require additional review if it will be utilized to store study data. If a study will be using any other database, including other REDCap databases, for data storage then it must undergo ISO review before IRB approval can be given. This is to ensure the database is secure and complies with Baystate Policy.
Remember, not all REDCaps are created equal.

Quick Pantry Clam Chowder
For an uncomplicated clam chowder recipe that was not too thin and watery or too thick and floury, canned clams are used. Thickening with flour is the way to go; it also helped to stabilize the chowder, which can easily separate and curdle without it.
