Who is responsible for my Clinical Trial Agreement, UVM or FAHC?
When College of Medicine faculty members who also hold clinical appointments at Fletcher Allen Health Care engage in clinical trials that are (1) supported by industrial sponsors and (2) use Fletcher Allen Health Care facilities only, the contractual arrangements for such work are typically between Fletcher Allen Health Care and the trial sponsor. A faculty member engaged in such work should contact his/her department business manager to arrange for review and signature of the contracts for these trials. All other research work in which such faculty members engage is considered part of their duties as University faculty and proposals, awards, and contracts for such work are managed through the University s Office of Sponsored Programs, Pre-Award Services.
