Dear Research Colleagues,

As a reminder, all research studies that are IRB approved and are currently recruiting are able to promote their study for a limited time. Previously this functionality was only available to actively recruiting studies in OnCore.

Please take a minute to familiarize yourself with this summary document as it highlights specific details and how the Research Studies administrative tool can be updated appropriately.

If you are looking to recruit participants to your research study, and your study is currently listed on the Research Studies website, we encourage you to submit a request to feature your study in an upcoming newsletter. 

Feel free to email researchstudies@cuanschutz.edu if you have any questions.
