Centralized REDCap Platform Supporting Secure, Compliant Campus Research

Campus Solutions

Enterprise Technology, in partnership with the Office of the Vice President for Research and Dell Medical School, delivers a centrally managed, multi-tenant REDCap service that enables researchers to rapidly deploy secure surveys and research databases without local infrastructure or programming effort.

The centrally operated REDCap platform supports secure data capture for research studies and clinical trials, enabling rapid project setup in under a day and will soon meet major regulatory requirements including HIPAA and GDPR. The service connects the University to a global consortium of more than 8,200 institutions across 164 countries.

REDCap is a secure, web-based research data capture application developed by Vanderbilt University in 2004. It is widely used in academic research to manage surveys, databases, audit trails, and exports. The software is provided at no cost to non profit institutions and is typically hosted by an organization's central technology department.
