• On September 15, the consortium will have a meeting with Sabune Winkler (Director of Regulatory, Catalyst), Pamela Richmond (HMS IRB administrator) and Susanne Churchill (SHRINE).
• If most members are available, the meeting will be extend to 11 pm to review the education plan.

3. CTSA journal

• Last week, CTS Clinical and Translational Science was mentioned by Gordon William as the official journal of the CTSA. Valerie checked if it would be a interesting journal for the consortium to publish a review.
• In each issue of this journal, there is a section called CTSA profile. It is a perfect place for an article highlighting the fact that the imaging consortium is not just a consultation service but also provides education, informatics support, etc
• The following CTSA already posted a CTSA profile in the previous issues (click on the names of the CTSA to get access to their papers): Vanderbilt Institute (Nashville), UC Davis, Johns Hopkinks , Rockefeller University, Mayo Clinic, [[media: Pittsburgh.pdf| University of Pittsburgh]
