| A clinical investigator must be able to publish
his/her scientific findings. This requires that data be
collected accurately, monitored appropriately, secured,
managed effectively, and is accessible for analysis
and reporting. The mission of the Informatics Core is to
provide the information infrastructure necessary to accomplish
these tasks. |
| Informatics core provides services for data management
using Microsoft Access and SQL server, electronic data collection,
and data reporting. |

- Subject Phone Follow-up Tracking
System
This is a web-based system that keeps track of subject follow-ups.
A follow-up plan protocol is defined specific to a given study. The
system can then generate follow-ups automatically after specifying
a subject's enrollment date. Whenever an investigator or a study coordinator
logs in, the system displays the scheduled follow-ups for the current
week to remind him/her tasks regards to follow-ups. There are also
search functionalities built into the system.
