What is SHARe?

SHARe Request Form button

A 14-member consortium launched by the CCTS to build on the strengths of our Partner Network to develop a truly transformational research enterprise in multisite studies for the Deep South.

Who is in SHARe?

Auburn University, HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, Ochsner Health System, Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Southern Research, Tulane University, Tuskegee University, University of Alabama, University of Alabama at Birmingham, University of Mississippi, University of Mississippi Medical Center, and University of South Alabama.

Why Use SHARe?

  • Multisite studies and clinical trials require a high degree of coordination among study sites. SHARe reduces the redundancies and eases the administrative burdens that slow typical time-to-activation. CCTS SHARe members sign on to a master IRB reliance agreement, streamlining the review process.
  • Multisite studies and clinical trials frequently struggle with recruitment. SHARe offers access to a large, regional, and varied patient population. Whether you are studying a rare or chronic disease, looking for a genetic anomaly, or testing the effects of an intervention or treatment by gender, age, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or geographic location, the SHARe network increases the odds of quickly building a robust list of potential participants who meet your research criteria.
  • Multisite studies and clinical trials that participate in SHARe will help spur trans-network innovation among faculty, physicians, and other health care providers, resulting in discoveries that can rapidly improve health care and, ultimately, benefit communities across the region.

How Do I Propose a Study to SHARe?
