Using the guidelines set out by the FDA and ICH, the team set out to maintain compliance. The addition of an organizational system will assist the staff in the endeavor of clinical research. Over the course of this internship experience, the research department added new processes, forms, and databases, increased productivity and patient interaction, and decreased the amount of time doing tasks. The main goal of the practicum project was to implement a set of tools to increase organization in the research department. As these tools were developed, they were implemented. After the collection and analysis of the data, it was determined that overall there was a slight increase in the productivity and efficiency with the research personnel. With all of the information working together, it decreased the number of tasks, and the time it took to complete some tasks.Item DIFFERENCES IN MOTIVATIONAL FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE PARTICIPATION IN RESEARCH STUDIES(2013-04-12) Lee, MichellePurpose: The purpose of this study was to determine what motivational factors influence a person's decision to participate in research studies and determine if these motivational factors differ by a person's gender, race/ethnicity, occupation and education level. Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 101 participants (18 years and older). They were asked to complete a survey that was compiled from different questions presented in the literature. For each variable, simple and multiple logistic regression were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between education, occupation, gender, and race/ethnicity with willingness to participate in clinical research while controlling for whether they have participated in research in the past. Chi-square analyses were performed to determine if motivational factors differed by gender, race/ethnicity, occupation, and education for those who were willing to participate in future studies. Results: In the unadjusted analyses, education level and occupation were associated with willingness to participate. In the adjusted model, education level and previous research participation were associated with willingness to participate. Motivational factors for participation significantly varied by education level (3 factors), occupation (4 factors), gender (1 factor) and race/ethnicity (1 factor). Conclusions: By researchers using these models and finding out what factors motivate these individuals to participate in research, they can make research more appealing and eventually increase participation in research studies.Item Eighteenth Annual Research Appreciation Day Program and Abstract Book(2010-04-23) University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort WorthAbstracts, agenda, and keynote speaker information from the eighteenth annual Research Appreciation Day in 2010.

Master of Science (Clinical Research Management), May, 2013, 97pp., 6 tables, bibliography, 24 titles. Purpose: To create a toolkit for investigator-initiated research outlining the resources available and the necessary steps to submit an application to the BUMC IRB and to make this a more efficient and satisfactory process. Hypothesis: A toolkit for investigator-initiated research that outlines the steps to complete Baylor’s Internal Review Board (IRB) submission process will decrease the timeframe that is needed for IRB approval and decrease the confusion with the application process. Design: A pilot toolkit was designed to aid in the IRB submission process for investigator-initiated research studies. A survey was distributed to toolkit users to gather information about their satisfaction with it and the effect that it had on efficiency. Results: The pilot toolkit was an anticipated item for researchers at Baylor. The packet was helpful and they were satisfied with the product. The preliminary results show that the packet reduced the time needed to obtain IRB approval.Item Fifteenth Annual Research Appreciation Day Program and Abstract Book(2007-04-06) University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort WorthAbstracts, agenda, and keynote speaker information from the fifteenth annual Research Appreciation Day in 2007.
