CCTR is available for general or project specific guidance.  In addition to one-on-one consultations, the Clinical Research Guide is also available to guide Investigators through the Research Process. 

CCTR provides individual scientific consultations for investigator-initiated studies. Please note: a draft proposal or protocol must be submitted prior to the meeting. 

CCTR partners with Emory and Children's to recognize and implement efficiencies between institutions and within individual research administration offices.

CCTR assists investigator-initiated studies by providing remote/on-site interim monitoring visits, assisting in the creation of the data and safety monitoring plan, and the development, implementation and closure of corrective and preventive actions (CAPA). 

If you would like to set up monitoring visits for your investigator-initiated studies, please contact Sarah Marie Huban.
