NICHD Maternal Fetal Medicine Units Network

描述（由申请人提供）：西北大学已经参加了NICHD产妇胎儿医学单位网络的最后两个周期，并申请继续参与到2016年。我们中心的组织没有实质性变化，主要研究者、两名候补主要研究者和研究协调员保持不变。我们中心的Botii站点继续扩大临床容量，使其成为网络中最大的产科容量中心之一。我们在网络内外的临床研究合作方面都有良好的记录。我们在上一个周期的贡献不仅包括高招募和数据质量排名，还包括在方案提交和试验管理方面的重大贡献。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Northwestern University has participated in the NICHD Maternal Fetal Medicine Units Network for the last two cycles, and is applying to continue this participation through 2016. There are no substantial changes to the organization of our Center, with the principal investigator, both alternate principal investigators, and the research coordinator unchanged. Botii sites for our Center continue to have expanding clinical volume, making it one of the largest obstetric volume centers in the Network. We have a proven record of collaboration in clinical research both outside and within the Network. Our contributions over the last cycle have included not only high recruitment and data quality rankings, but also major contributions in protocol submissions and trial management.
