About the Service

 

Research Concierge @ the Library is a joint service provided by iTHRIV, the SOM CTO, and the Health Sciences Library.

The Integrated Translational Health Research Institute of Virginia (iTHRIV) serves as the “front door” for researchers and study teams at the University of Virginia to provide education and services to facilitate clinical and translational research, including data modeling, basic science, animal, clinical, and outcomes research. The SOM Clinical Trials Office (CTO) provides support services for the planning, implementation and management of clinical research studies. Together THRIV and the CTO are offering Research Concierge Services at the Health Sciences Library.
