The Research Office hosts a variety of workshops, vendor shows and seminars throughout the year for faculty and staff. Various trainings are also made available by the University of Arizona research community. Upcoming learning opportunities can be found through the college's events calendar. Contact the Research Office with questions.
Biostatistics & Qualtrics
The Biostatistics workshops cover various topics — including creating research surveys, managing the collected data and how power analysis can be used in research.
ORCID
ORCID enables transparent and trustworthy connections between researchers, their contributions, and affiliations by providing an identifier for individuals to use with their name as they engage in research, scholarship, and innovation activities. The University of Arizona requires all investigators to have an ORCID ID as many publishers and grant funding agencies require it when submitting a manuscript or grant proposal.
SciENcv
Science Experts Network Curriculum Vitae (SciENcv) is an electronic system that helps researchers assemble the professional information needed for participation in federally funded research. Researchers can use SciENcv to create and maintain biosketches that are submitted with grant applications and annual reports. SciENcv gathers and compiles information on expertise, employment, education and professional accomplishments.
SciENcv Workshops and Resources
Biotech Research Development and Entrepreneurialism (BRDE)
Coffee, Consultation, and Collaboration series: Each month, BRDE spotlights a topic and/or guest speaker related to research funding, bioscience innovation, research commercialization, and entrepreneurial resources. The meeting takes place on the 4th Friday of every month. Please contact Sabrina Uddin (@email) to be added to the listserv to learn about this meeting series and other U of A College of Medicine – Phoenix research events. You can also fill out this form.
Library Workshops
Recordings and slides from past research workshops can be viewed here. Some topics include ORCID, SciENcv, Scopus, PubMed, Publishing for Impact and Citation Management Tools. Learn more about databases and publishing your research.
Trainee Seminar Series
This seminar series is a weekly opportunity for graduate students and postdocs to present their latest research and receive feedback. Each session includes two twenty-minute presentations and all participants with one credit available to Clinical Translational Sciences students for the full semester.
Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Workshops
RCR workshops are open to all members of the campus community and required by certain individuals funded through NIH, NSF, or NIFA. Each workshop may count toward an RCR Certificate. See RCR Certificate Program and Federal Requirements for details on who is required to receive RCR instruction and the process for fulfilling those requirements.
Compliance Trainings
Compliance trainings are available to help researchers comply with and navigate the various federal, state, and local regulations. Trainings include COI, Export Control, HIPAA, Human Subjects Protection Program (HSPP), IACUC, RLSS and Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR).
Lab Safety Orientation
Laboratory safety orientation, specific to the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix, is provided by the Laboratory Operations Manager to ensure that researchers receive necessary safety training prior to working in research laboratories.
Core Services
Our Biomedical Imaging Core and Flow Cytometry Core host various workshops, vendor shows and learning opportunities each year to support their research and train users on the new equipment. These allow the attendees to learn about new technology and innovations in their respective research.
Laboratory Operations Vendor Shows
Vendor shows are held multiple times throughout the year to provide networking opportunities for our researchers to meet and connect with companies who offer research equipment, supplies and services.
