Accessing Clinical Data for Research with i2b2 can help investigators:
- Determine study feasibility (sample cohort size)
- Identify potential participants for recruitment
- Perform simple data analyses of de-identified patient data
- Explore hypotheses for clinical studies/trials
In-person trainings have temporarily halted, but virtual trainings are available; you can still learn to use i2b2 to explore using UAB's electronic health record data for your research data needs! Keep up with all virtual learning opportunities through the CCTS Upcoming Events Page.
We strongly recommend attendees request i2b2 access prior to an i2b2 training session. Nonfaculty must obtain supervisor approval. Due to high demand, participation is limited to one session per attendee.
Jointly sponsored by the UAB Informatics Institute and the Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS). To find out about the latest learning opportunities as soon as they are announced, subscribe to CCTS Digest and check our Events and Recurring Events web pages.

“Our goals are to meet the needs of principal investigators while supporting the highest level of excellence in clinical and translational research, said CRU Nurse Manager Jolene Lewis, MSN, RN. “We are well trained in Good Clinical Practice Guidelines and offer highly skilled, safe, efficient, and compassionate care.” The CRU team’s experience encompasses the entire care spectrum, from healthy volunteers to intensive end-stage participants.
The CRU offers numerous services—both inpatient and outpatient—to support the needs of clinical trials and studies. These include:
• Medication administration/ Intravenous therapy
• Pharmacokinetic sampling
• Nursing assessment
• Patient education
• Treatment monitoring
• Point-of-care testing
• Cardiac & pulse oximetry monitoring
• Venipuncture/phlebotomy
• Questionnaire administration
The CRU clinic is the latest addition to our “First Wednesdays @ PCAMS” consultation clinics. CCTS also offers: (1) Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design (BERD); (2) Bionutrition; and (3) Biorepository. To learn more about our other clinics, see “CCTS Triple Feature Wednesdays.” To learn more about CRU or to request services, see our CRU page.
