Getting Started
- To inquire about the EDRC Program’s services, email Phoebe Natzke at pnatzke@medicine.wisc.edu with a copy of your study protocol.
- After receiving your email, you will work with Phoebe to schedule a consultation to discuss logistics and the feasibility of using the EDRC Program.
- The EDRC Program will then develop an initial price estimate and send it to you (and your study team) for approval.
- Once pricing is approved by the study team, investigators will need to obtain approval from the Emergency Medicine Research Committee (EMRC) and IRB. Please note: when applying for approval you must use EDRC-specific recruitment language in the protocol.
- After approval by the EMRC and IRB, the EDRC Program Coordinator will work with you and your study team to develop a recruitment process and materials. From there, the EDRC team will be trained on your specific research protocol and begin recruitment.
