The EIOH CTRC is to be considered as a resource to EIOH faculty and residents in relation to the clinical and translational research activities, including sponsored projects and grants, by means of facilitating clinical and translational research, identifying and allocating resources, assisting the faculty and residents with their research undertakings and sustaining, and strengthening linkages with the URMC CTSI.
