REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) is a software program designed to assist scientific teams with single- and multi-site research study data collection and management. The program is locally supporting approximately 430 research-related projects and 1700 end-users at Vanderbilt University and Meharry Medical College, where it is freely available as a CTSA/VICTR resource. REDCap has also been successfully exported for use at 59 academic and non-profit partners (28 CTSAs, 2 RCMIs, 5 IDeAs, 3 Non-Profits, 3 International, 18 Others). This presentation will include: 1) details about current software capabilities; 2) an overview of ongoing work prioritized to best serve the research community; and 3) a description of our engagement model for training and supporting clinical and translational research teams.
