During this 1 hour webinar, Dale Needham, FCPA, MD, PhD, will share methods to help improve participant retention rates in longitudinal follow-up studies. A question and answer period will follow the presentation. For more information, contact Dale Needham at dale.needham@jhmi.edu. Register Here   This webinar is part of the NIH-funded Recruitment Innovation Center (RIC). The RIC provides evidenced based recruitment and retention methods, tools, and strategies. The RIC is a part of the Trial Innovation Network and is federally supported by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS).  

This series showcases many of the resources, programs, educational training and other opportunities we offer.  Those tools are designed to transform the translational process so that new treatments and cures for disease can be delivered to patients faster. On the third Thursday of the month, speakers will present a topic that can directly aid clinical research study team members. We encourage all faculty, staff and students to attend. There will be a question and answer period at the close of each lecture. If you have suggestions for future topics, feel free to contact us. Next Lecture: Thursday, February 21, 2019 10-11…

Join us Thursday, March 14, from 2:30-5:30 pm in Tilghman Auditorium to learn about the Chesapeake Regional Information System for our Patients (CRISP) database.  CRISP allows users to easily check if a consented research participant has been seen in an emergency room or been hospitalized anywhere in Maryland (and in some surrounding areas). The CRISP research initiative affords many studies and projects efficient electronic access to consented-participant records outside of the JHM environment. Speakers will highlight studies that utilized data obtained from CRISP and will share how prospective investigators can facilitate their clinical research by using the database.
