The UNC Health Sciences Library was the recipient of a 2007 UCRF Clinical Innovation Award to provide highly-focused, customized library services to multidisciplinary cancer care and research teams. Their librarians conduct literature searches, set up current alerts, and provide articles when and where you need them. Other information services are available on request.
Request a consultation or get in touch with Cancer Information Librarians Karen Crowell (kcrowell@email.unc.edu, 919-966-0951) or Jean Blackwell (jean_blackwell@unc.edu, 919-966-0958).
- RCA is a UNC core that accelerates the cancer case reporting process of the North Carolina Central Cancer Registry (NCCCR). RCA can identify cases as soon as 1 month after diagnosis which minimizes delay in contacting cases prior to death or significant morbidity. RCA also offers services to obtain medical records and retrieve diagnostic tumor blocks or slides. For more information, go to the UNC Lineberger website or contact Tara Strigo at 919-966-0032 or tara_strigo@unc.edu.
- We invite your partnership to apply for a CBPR Charrette. A charrette is a set of FREE consultation sessions that bring research partners together with academic and community experts experienced in CBPR to help you address the questions you have about bringing a CBPR approach to any phase of your research project.
