Research Capacity Core Consultation Request Form
The Research Capacity Core (RCC) of the RCMI program is designed to facilitate research at DSU by assisting with research design and providing consultations on quantitative and qualitative research methodologies to researchers of all levels of experience. To better assist you, please provide as much detail as possible. If your project is not fully formed, please enter as much preliminary information as you can provide. Your responses will help the RCC team determine the best way to address your request and assign to the relevant core. We expect ongoing interactions with the assigned RCC team member as the project moves along the timeline.
A representative from RCC will respond to your request within one week.
Note: All applications for an RCMI Pilot Grant require an initial consultation with the Research Capacity Core at least two weeks before any grant application deadline. A comprehensive review of the methodology section, for which you received our consultation services, is required before submission.
The Research Capacity Core can assist with the following:
- Review of the available support services
- Review of your research ideas
- Develop or review your research questions
- Develop and review your methodology
- Develop or review your IT support needs
- Access to or support with software (i.e., Excel, STATA, REDCap, BioRender, Atlas.ti)
- Evaluation support (separate consult form available)
Please complete the form as accurately as possible. Providing as much information as possible will help us prepare for the consultation.
