We have the mission to serve as a catalyst for clinical and translational research that improves health and healthcare for Oklahomans, to provide training and infrastructure to help junior investigators to launch independent research careers, and to expand the opportunities of IDeA states and Oklahoma communities to participate in research that improves the health of our residents.

OSCTR Clinical Resources Space Availability

We would like all clinical investigators within our Oklahoma Shared Clinical and Translational Resources partner institutions to be aware that the OSCTR Clinical Research space in the Harold Hamm Diabetes Center is now open and available for your clinical research studies. We have a new clinical research coordinator, Janice Gales, who looks forward to aiding investigators with clinical research projects and regulatory assistance. Janice is a registered nurse who has been involved in clinical research on campus since 1995. 

Translating Practice into Research Program RFA

This year the OSCTR is starting a research training program.

Translating Practice into Research (TPIR), for healthcare professionals, clinical investigators, and basic scientists funded by the NIH Oklahoma Shared Clinical and Translational Resources grant. The goal of the TPIR trainee program is to produce a group of clinicians and scientists who have the ability to translate their clinical observations and ideas for improving practice into practical and feasible research projects. Attached is a detailed description.
