|
Accrual to Clinical Trials Network Now Available!
The
Accrual to Clinical Trials (ACT) Network
was developed collaboratively by members of the CTSA consortium to enable cohort discovery using a web-based interface in a HIPPA-Compliant manner, without requiring study-specific IRB approval.
ACT provides access to a national network of leading academic medical research centers and generates aggregate patient count data from an investigator’s query to explore patient populations for multi-site studies.
|
|
Responsible Research Practices
All clinical research investigators and staff are subject to review of their clinical research practices by local, regional, and/or federal regulatory authorities as well as sponsors, as appropriate.
Updated standard operating procedures for clinical research investigators and research teams are now available on the CCTS website.

Veterinary Clinical Trials
The Blue Buffalo Veterinary clinical trials office has over 20 clinical trials for cats and dogs at the Veterinary Medical Center.
Pets that participate in clinical trials are named
Pet Heroes
for their selfless contributions to life saving research.
Knowledge gained from these trials is used to design better treatments for both pets and humans.

CARE Panel
The Ethics of Community Engaged Research
|
|
Our seventh CARE Panel will feature
Charles Weijer
(Professor; Canada Research Chair in Bioethics, Western University).
There has been a recent push for community engaged research, particularly when the research is conducted across cultural, structural and economic differences. In this panel we will examine what exactly ought to count as engaging a community as a research partner.
Charles Weijer is a leading expert on the ethics of randomized controlled trials. From 2008–2013 Charles co-led a collaboration that produced the first international ethics guidelines for cluster randomized trials.

Patient & Community Peer Review Academy
Training for patients and community members
|
|
The Patient & Community Peer Review Academy is a newly added component of the
CCTS Pilot Funding Program
. The CCTS Pilot Funding Program held its first ever Patient & Community Peer Review Academy on
March 25, 2019
with 11 community members. Our goals include:
- Engage patients and communities in every phase of the translational process
- Ensure that the research question is not only relevant and applicable to the affected community and target group but also aligns with their priorities.
- Foster bi‐directional alliance and dialogue between academic researchers and patients/caregivers/community
- Improve research participant recruitment and retention
- Promote the integration of special and underserved populations in translational research across the human lifespan

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Translational Science and Human Health
|
|
The pilot-feasibility-incubation funding mechanism of the CCTS Pilot Translational and Clinical (PTC) Studies Program is funded by the National Institutes of Health National Center for Advancing Translational Science (NCATS) and aims to deliver high-quality high-impact research supporting team science and generation of preliminary data to enable researchers to successfully compete for extramural funding.
The Ohio State CCTS seeks proposals that address scientific questions consistent with the Center’s mission at any “stage of research along the path from the biological basis of health and disease to interventions that improve the health of individuals and the public” as described in NIH NCATS’ Translational` Science Spectrum.
The pre-application due date is
December 10, 2019.

I-Corps@Ohio
Accelerating the Commercialization of Ohio's University-Based Technologies
|
|
I-Corps@Ohio
is putting forward a call for proposals from teams of clinicians and researchers from any Ohio institute of higher learning who are working on innovative health-related devices, diagnostics, medicines, vaccines, software, testing procedures and systems to solve a health/clinical problem and improve the quality of human life.
Selected teams are awarded
$12,500 to participate in the summer program where they can work to validate the commercial potential of their research discoveries and learn how the commercial potential of their research discoveries can drive future collaboration and funding opportunities.
The submission portal is open and the deadline to submit is
January 21, 2020

Integrating Special Populations Programs
|
|
As part of the Center for Clinical and Translational Science at The Ohio State University and Nationwide Children’s Hospital, the
Integrating Special Populations (ISP) Program
was designed to address the underrepresentation of special populations in clinical and translational research. Limited pilot funding is available annually through the ISP Program, with the next annual deadline being
January 15, 2020
.
|
|
The purpose of Accelerator Awards is to fund activities that will demonstrate the commercial viability of a technology. Applicants may apply for direct costs up to $150,000 for biomedical/life sciences projects and up to $100,000 for all other projects. The application deadline is
November 3, 2019
