Orientation for New Clinical Research Personnel
April 7, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm
This six-part orientation is strongly recommended for all clinical research personnel who are new to research or new to UNC-Chapel Hill. We will introduce participants to the UNC offices involved in clinical trials, discuss federal and local regulations governing conduct of research, and provide an overview of best practices utilized in the implementation of clinical research. Research personnel are encouraged to attend all modules, but may choose to attend only those of particular interest or relevance.
All sessions are from 1:30 to 4 p.m. — and we are keeping the lines open after the orientation for a discussion and Q/A session!
