Designing, implementing and managing clinical research studies can be challenging. The College of Medicine (COM) Office of Research promotes the education, training and mentoring of research teams. Staff provide assistance to researchers and also help to identify resources within The Ohio State University in relation to clinical research administration and operations; clinical trial development, coordination and management; and compliance. Some COM resources include:
- The Ohio State University Center for Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI)
- The Ohio State University Center for Clinical Research Management (CCRM) Clinical Trials Management Organization (CTMO)
- The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center (OSUCCC) Clinical Trials Office (CTO)

Clinical Research Education and Seminars
Our clinical research studies are governed by two management groups: the Clinical Trials Office (CTO) which oversees oncology clinical trials, and the Clinical Trials Management Organization (CTMO) which controls non-oncology research. Both groups have comprehensive onboarding programs which include a combination of in-person and online training on all aspects of clinical research operations, electronic medical record and project management software utilization, privacy and security, and appropriate biohazard material handling and shipping.
The Clinical Research Professional Training Series is a continuing education initiative for Clinical Research Professionals. This series will emphasize regulations, best practices, resources and guidelines pertaining to clinical research conducted at The Ohio State University.
