About RTRN

Core Resources

The Core Resources subcommittee functions as a primary component of the RTRN Steering Committee. The Core Resources subcommittee is responsible for identifying research tools and technologies available at the participating RCMI sites available to enhance translational research. This subcommittee fosters and facilitates the development of partnerships and collaborations to enhance network studies by supporting the development of ancillary studies made possible by the resources and capabilities of these cores; thereby increasing the involvement of both RCMI clinical and basic research programs in RTRN network studies.
