New York University School Of MedicineIn 2017, the NYU Clinical and Translational Science Institute's Recruitment and Retention Unit created a Patient Advisory Council for Research (PACR) to provide feedback on clinical trials and health research studies.
Oregon Health and Science UniversityThe Oregon Clinical & Translational Research Institute (OCTRI) Recruitment team pivoted its efforts early on during the COVID pandemic in order to support clinical and translational scientists in navigating the research shutdown (and now the restart of research) at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU).
June 05, 2020UMHealthResearch.org (UMHR) is designed to go above and beyond a typical participant recruitment platform because it allows for study use both ways: volunteers (both healthy and with specific medical conditions) and researchers can search for studies and find matches based on their interests and needs. This unique participant recruitment site has received national recognition and attention across the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) consortium. UMHealthResearch is now being deployed across the country at half a dozen other CTSA programs in Illinois and Florida, with more expressing interest as the word spreads about its unique design and interface.
