Recruitment Resources Toolkit
Tools available to University at Buffalo researchers and Buffalo Translational Consortium (BTC) partners will enhance recruitment for your research study from feasibility through follow-up. If you have any questions about a tool, contact ctsiresearch@buffalo.edu.
Buffalo Research Registry
The Buffalo Research Registry is a database of people from Buffalo and Western New York with interest in becoming research study volunteers. Potential participants fill out a profile that is used to match them with eligible research studies. To explore using the registry for your study, visit the CTSI request portal and fill out a brief form.
TriNetX
TriNetX provides BTC investigators with access to searchable, de-identified clinical patient data from 1.2 million UB|MD patients' electronic health records at no cost. TriNetX can be used to determine feasibility and with IRB approval, project enrollment by recruiting specific patients directly. To access TriNetX data visit the CTSI service request portal link and reach out to the IHI team. For more information visit the Institute for Health Informatics page.
