Good Afternoon Everyone,

 

As I return from maternity leave and begin meeting with faculty again, I am noticing that we might still have some barriers to human health/clinical trials here on campus (I also experienced some of these barriers during my PDF – i.e., sites, AHS operational approval, clinician participation).

 

As a result, I am gathering information to better understand the barriers faculty face when conducting, or attempting to conduct, human health and clinical research (particularly clinical trials) at the University of Lethbridge. Your insights will help identify gaps in support, infrastructure, and processes, and will help me assist further, and hopefully strengthen our capacity in this area. As a follow-up, once I receive feedback, I can also attempt to address some gaps with current resources that we have that you might not be familiar with (i.e., CITI program, N2, AbSPORU).

 

I would be grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete the short survey linked below. If possible, please complete the survey by February 11th.

The survey can be completed anonymously. If you are open to being contacted for follow‑up conversation, you may optionally include your name and faculty/department at the beginning of the survey. Alternatively, you can book a meeting with me to discuss using the link below my signature.

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Thank you in advance and have a great day,

 

Keiko

The University of Lethbridge’s Blackfoot name is Iniskim, meaning Sacred Buffalo Stone. The University is located in traditional Blackfoot Confederacy territory. I am grateful to live and work on the traditional land of the Blackfoot people, and continue to learn and  honour their traditional ways of knowing in caring for this land, as well as all Indigenous Peoples who have helped shape and continue to strengthen our University community.
