Pitt Psychiatry Launches Website for Clinical Research Restart Following Suspension of Research Activities Due to COVID-19

On Friday, June 5, 2020, we announced the creation of the Department of Psychiatry Clinical Research Restart Web Portal for faculty, staff and trainees.
The site, which requires a UPMC account and password, includes: 

  • Links to guidance and documents to help navigate this transition and submit a research restart plan

  • The COVID-19 training video, required for faculty and research staff

  • The daily COVID-19 screening form

  • The opportunity to order PPE 

  • The Restart Request portal

David Lewis, MD (Chair, Department of Psychiatry) said, “I know we are all very excited to get back to doing research! Thank you in advance for your thoughtful plans to restart your research in the best interests of our research subjects and our research community. A very special thank you to Deb Montrose, Jack Doman and the Office of Academic Computing for creating this great resource so quickly!”
