"Integrative Information Systems to Enchance Clinical Research" On October 17, 2006 Dr. Allen Tien, CEO & Research Director of Medical Decision Logic, Inc. (MDLogix), discussed the clinical research management system (CRMS) MDLogix is developing for JHU clinical researchers. The CRMS interfaces with the EPR and the eIRB. It will provide convenient tools for recruiting, enrolling, assessing, and monitoring subjects' progress in your clinical research protocols. The system is under active development, so investigators will have an opportunity to provide input into the design and capabilities of the system. A key goal of the system is to better integrate research processes school wide. A web-cast of the meeting may be found here. Visiting Scholars Lecture Archive |
