Collaboration

The CTSI has a couple of great relationships already established with outside clinical options to aid in your multisite clinical research initiative.

CATALYST does not focus on Clinical Trials per say but is instrumental in the areas of health services research and implementation science. Health services research is a multidisciplinary field of scientific investigation that studies how social factors, financing systems, organizational structures and processes, health technologies and personal behaviors affect access to health care, the quality and cost of health care and ultimately, our health and well-being. Implementation science is the scientific study of methods to promote the systematic uptake of research findings and other evidence-based practices into routine practice and to improve the quality and effectiveness of health services and care.

Healthy State Alliance is a strategic initiative between The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and Bon Secours Mercy Health (top 20 health system in the United States). Offers 500 care facilities, 23 hospitals and 26 post-acute care facilities spanning five states.
