Start the New Year off right with a NICE review!

New to research? Or has it been a while since you’ve gotten some feedback on your research processes? If so, and if you have a study that’s about to be approved or that hasn’t enrolled any subjects yet, consider getting in touch with the Office of Research Compliance (ORC) to request a New Investigation Consult and Education, or NICE, review. These voluntary reviews will help assure that your study gets off to a good start and that your study processes meet regulatory requirements. The ORC staff may also have suggestions for how you can carry out your study more efficiently. For more information, or to request a NICE review, please contact Karen Barnwell at 686-5186, Carrie Chiaro at 526-6270, or Trey Terry at 686-5806.
