Create and maintain practical resources (e.g., templates, brief instructional videos, and handouts) to assist faculty with research development, IRB processes, and scholarly writing.
Help faculty identify foundational methodological approaches and connect them with advanced support resources (e.g., statisticians or research methodologists) as needed.
Track and maintain records of faculty participation, events, and supported projects to support program assessment and reporting efforts.
Collaborate with Center staff to identify recurring faculty needs and develop targeted programs and support initiatives.
