Blast Your Study Flyer to the
UR Health Research Email List
Study teams will often create a flyer to recruit participants for their open research studies. The UR CTSI can assist the flyer distribution by sending an email blast to the UR Health Research list. This list consists of more than 5,000 local community members and patients who have agreed to be contacted about research study opportunities. The service is free for studies led by University of Rochester investigators. Email Research Help to take advantage of this service for your current enrolling study.

ORCID Support from Miner Libraries
An Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) is a unique identifier that assists in easily tracking your research activities. Next year, NIH will require researchers to have an ORCID profile to apply for grants. The librarians at Miner Libraries can assist researchers with creating this profile. Librarians will be in the Saunders Research Building, outside the CTSI Directors’ Suite to help set up ORCID identifiers. Stop by and create your ORCID in less than ten minutes.

TIN Webinar: A New Model for Statistical
Reports for RCT Data Monitoring Committees
This Trial Innovation Network webinar will be presented by: Frank E Harrell, Jr., Ph.D. Reproducible statistical reports have gained traction in recent years, and the availability of interactive graphics embedded inside html reports has given us better ways to present information. This is especially true when a large quantity of clinical trial information must be digested by data monitoring (DSMB) committees. A new R package for producing interactive DSMB reports will be demonstrated. Register now.
Date: Monday, November 4
Time: 12:00 – 1:00 pm
