# Clinical, Laboratory, and Data Management Core

## Abstract

ABSTRACT
The Clinical, Laboratory and Data Management Core (Core B) provides the infrastructure for ensuring consistent 
acquisition of clinical data, samples and sample derivatives for the laboratory studies proposed in CRISP2. 
Additionally, because significant experience and expertise resides in Core B(1-6), it will serve to validate and 
disseminate new protocols for sample acquisition, processing or analysis should needs arise. Core B also serves 
as the base for inflammatory cytokine endotyping assays that serve all projects in the proposal. To achieve these 
goals, Core B encompasses three major components – clinical, laboratory and data management– that will 
provide infrastructure, training and expertise. Although functioning as a de facto center since 2004, the core was 
formally established in 2012 to support CRISP1. These services will be maintained to provide optimal support to 
CRISP2, upgrading as necessary to continue providing comprehensive and integrated clinical, laboratory and 
data management.
