REDCap is a BU CTSI and BUMC IT sponsored resource for the
purpose of collecting research data, educational purposes, or use for BUMC
operations or quality improvement projects. Available at no-cost to BU/BMC
investigators, REDCap CTSI services include:
- Access to REDCap software
- 1-hour initial consultation per user/project
- Bi-weekly drop-in sessions
- Membership of Google REDCap Users Group
Additional hourly assistance and complete REDCap project
configuration can be provided for a fee. For information regarding REDCap user
access, additional support and services, please contact Tasha Coughlin at tawatson@bu.edu.
Please note that although BUMC REDCap is HIPAA compliant, it
currently does NOT meet 21 CFR Part 11 FDA requirements.
Users should rely on their IRB submission to
determine if a study is considered
research, an exempt BU quality improvement initiative, or if it’s
strictly a BMC initiative. If it is the latter, charges for using REDCap may
apply in the future.
