  2. Provide educational opportunities to research faculty and staff;
  3. Facilitate regulatory knowledge and support to investigators and clinical research professionals to enhance compliance with federal and institutional requirements;
  4. Identify and/or support development of new clinical research opportunities in collaboration with our clinical research teams;
  5. Encourage interdisciplinary collaboration for clinical research and incorporate available resources throughout the University and UNC Health Care.
