Medical students are encouraged to participate in research by contacting
Dr. Diaz or Dr. Frugoli to join an existing resident and/or faculty team
in an area of interest to them. As part of a Community Memorial research
team, medical students may assist with data collection, literature review,
or other parts of a study or case report. Under special circumstances,
medical students can complete a research elective.
Medical students accessing PHI need to be included in research proposals
and on the Internal Review Board (IRB) application and must sign off with
the principal investigator (PI) prior to leaving the study. Due to their
relatively short tenure at Community Memorial, medical students should
consider their availability when evaluating the type of research in which
they wish to participate.
