Rachel Clift, associate director of clinical research services, and Lee Ann Williams, associate director of clinical research operations, CTRU, Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine

Ohio University faculty and students participate actively in domestic, international and world-renowned research programs. Disruption of research by any prolonged event would severely impact the University’s academic and research mission, as well as the reputation and fiscal stability of the institution. Preparing for a rapid response and prioritization of projects to minimize the negative effects and rapid restoration of research functions is supported via the OHIO Ready Business Continuity Planning process. Join Clift and Williams for a discussion on how to identify necessary steps for a clear roadmap for recovery.
