The new UAMS Clinical Research Center (CRC) has a metabolic kitchen and satellite units at the Arkansas Children's Hospital, Reynolds Institute on Aging, Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer
Institute and the Psychiatric Research Institute. This transformed CRC is the
Arkansas CCTR's premier resource for supporting investigators and research
participants.
The management plan for CRC and its satellite units includes a baseline level of
support and a flexible schedule for supporting studies. In addition to providing specialized research space and
traditional services such as nursing support,
dietary consultation, a metabolic kitchen, biostatistical support, informatics
consultation and specialized core laboratories CRC coordinators are now available
to assist with the regulatory aspects of protocol management, recruitment
of research subjects, and other needs.
We are excited
to be in the planning stages of a ~7,000 sq ft CRC with an adjacent ~5,000 sq ft
for CCTR administrative offices located in the UAMS Central Building, 4th Floor. This central space for the CCTR,
CRC, and coordinated administrative functions will greatly improve research coordination and integration
of CCTR components.
