RTRN Services

RTRN Services

RTRN is a resource for identifying potential funding opportunities based on research concentration; identifying approaches to involve the community and enhance outreach; and, helping to connect researchers to bolster collaborations and team science. RTRN channels the resources/services of the Data Coordinating Center to support basic, clinical and translational research projects and to provide training to use collaboration and communication tools and technologies necessary for conducting multi-institutional and cross-disciplinary translational research. RTRN maintains a presence at international conferences, workshops and seminars to promote its scientists research agenda and to foster strategic partnerships with other scientific teams/institutions that can offer additional benefits to enhance our scientist’s research activities.

RTRN provides the following support to the research community:

Protocol Review and Support

 

Ethics, Legal & Regulatory Support (Request for Serivces)

RTRN’s Ethics & Regulatory Committee works with the researchers to ensure adherence to ethics, good clinical practice, regulatory and other applicable guidelines. Ethics & Regulatory committee is committed to ensuring the safety, confidentiality and integrity of the research participants and their communities related to any and all RTRN projects.  Through our RTRN member-institution, Tuskegee University, researchers can access the nation’s first bioethics center devoted to engaging the sciences, humanities, law and religious faiths in the exploration of the core moral issues which underlie research and medical treatment of minority and other underserved people.
