Biomedical involves all types of clinical research studies, including FDA-regulated research and those that involve investigational drugs, biologics, and devices.

• Investigational devices encompass a wide variety of items. The following are examples which would be considered investigational devices:  
  • Non-FDA cleared devices (both implantable or one which will be applied to just the surface of the body)
  • Investigational software packages which will be run on a FDA cleared device (such as WIP MR pulse sequences, or post-processing analysis software);
  • In-vitro diagnostic assays (IVD), laboratory developed tests (LDTs);
  • Certain types of mobile applications which will provide a clinical decision (without physician or provider input)

This course combines the Biomedical Research course along with the Good Clinical Practices (US FDA focus) course.

Completion of this course allows Investigators to seamlessly complete both courses and will ensure that these trainings and certifications are renewed every 3 years. Completion of this course will assist Investigators and research study staff in complying with Sponsor, or MCW departmental/division research requirements.

Social/Behavioral Research (SBR) encompasses a wide variety of research including but not limited to:

• Observational,
• Survey research,
• Epidemiological studies

This research does not involve any drugs or devices (investigational or market-approved).

This course is listed as Social/Behavioral Learner Group.

Individuals who complete this course may also be interested in completing the CITI course Good clinical Practices for Social Behavioral Research.
