NIH Provides Resources for Clinical InvestigatorsThe NIH has posted several items to their website to assist investigators (whether or not they are seekingNIH funding) regarding clinical research. Upcoming NIH policy changes will impact all applications involvingclinical trials. Learn more about the new requirements, and determine if your study meets the NIHdefinition of a clinical trial.Even if you are not seeking NIH funding for a clinical trial, you might benefit from exploring the NIHwebsite. For example, take a look at the website that provides resources on research methods related toexperiments that randomize groups or clusters or that deliver interventions to groups. The information isrelevant for human and animal studies and for basic and applied research. The website includes a calculator to estimatesample size requirements for group- or cluster-randomized trials.For more information, please visit https://grants.nih.gov/policy/clinical-trials/definition.htm
