CRSO Services
The University of Kentucky Clinical Research Support Office (CRSO) supports investigators and clinical research coordinators across campus to conduct clinical research.
We review all clinical research studies to determine if a coverage analysis is needed and if the study is required to be tracked in the Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS).
In addition, we can provide fee-based regulatory, recruitment, and clinical trial financial management services to assist investigators and their teams in conducting clinical research.
The CRSO holds office hours via zoom every Friday from 10-11am.
