Application Process

The CRC supports multiple projects from diverse disciplines. Investigators supported by federal agencies, the private sector, state institutions, and local agencies are eligible to use the CRC.

We encourage all investigators interested in using CRC resources to contact the CRC Unit Director at the beginning of protocol development and for guidance in submitting service/resource requests. We will provide resource availability and budget information necessary for finalizing grant information and/or IRB processing. A Research Plan Template is available.

After receiving funding and IRB approval, submit a formal request for CRC services/resources via the CRC Application.

Submit the following documents electronically:

• Completed CRC application, including completed statistical sections within application.
• An electronic version of the protocol, or a Research Plan with abstract, hypotheses and specific aims, appendices and references, as well as the rationale for subject inclusion/exclusion criteria.
• Demographics tables for recruitment within protocol.
• Inclusion/exclusion checklist with Y/N boxes.
• IRB approved consent form(s) and IRB approval letter.
• Other support page (mark "N/A" if not receiving any other support).
• Enrollment Table and Data and Safety Monitoring Plan (DSMP) included in the CRC application.
• Package inserts or other documentation (e.g., IND, IDE) on study drugs and/or devices administered (mark "N/A" if not applicable).
