Committee Rosters: Advisory Council on Clinical Research (ACCR)

ACCR is an advisory body initiated in 1997 as part of the program of Academic Support Funds supporting new faculty initiatives within the Medical School. It was formed based on specific recommendations made by a faculty Task Force on Clinical Research. ACCR is analogous in function to the Biomedical Research Council.

ACCR is charged with:

• strategic planning for key translational areas of research;
• peer reviewed allocation of funds to support collaborative, patient-based research projects involving clinical faculty;
• guidance on centralized administration and service needs for clinical research;
• strengthening of linkages with Health Services and Outcomes research activities;
• coordination of programmatic functions to enhance clinical research; and
• ACCR also reviews nominations for the annual Clinical and Health Services Research Award.
