1. Imaging Information and Acquisition Liaison Job Position

  • The CTSC Imaging Consortium is in the process of finishing the last several interviews of our three top candidates for the position and writing evaluations of the candidates.
    • Many members of the Consortium have interviewed the candidates. At least one Consortium member from each site has met all three candidates for the position.
    • Several members have already posted their evaluations of the candidates on the xythos site and sent their rank ordering of the candidates to Carolyn. Consortium members who have not done so are asked to submit their evaluations and rankings by Thursday.
    • There will be a special t-con to discuss the Imaging Liaison candidates on Friday December 19th at 9:30 am.
    • The Consortium members reported that they have no further questions and are prepared to make a decision on Friday during the t-con.
    • Randy received one additional recommendation for one of the candidates, which she has posted on the xythos site.


2. Coordination with CTSC Central (Randy)

The Consortium is working closely with CTSC Central to facilitate the goals of both this imaging group and Harvard Catalyst as a whole.

  • The first CTSC Progress report is due on January 8th. CTSC Central has requested that the Imaging Consortium submit within the next week:
    • a summary of our accomplishments as a group
    • a description of how the Imaging Group contributes to the Harvard catalyst's and overall national CTSA's efforts
    • and our plans for the next year.
  • Gordon Williams suggested compiling numerical data that represents the Imaging Consortium's activities.
  • The Consortium is working with CTSC Central programmers to create a system for online consultation request submissions via a web based form and collecting outcome metrics.
    • A Beta version of an online consultation request system is being piloted for the Biostatistics group.
    • The Imaging Consortium will work with the CTSC Central programmers to include software that will track the consultation requests and collect data on the consultations.
    • The Group agreed that numerical data measuring the success of the consultation service should be collected. This may include the number of consultation request submissions, a percentage breakdown of the type of consultation requests received, and the time to complete consultation requests. The Consortium will also consider sending a feedback questionnaire to researchers requesting consultation services to gather additional outcome metrics.
    • Randy will meet with the programmers on Friday to plan for the construction of this online submission system.
  • The Consortium discussed the PCIR review of Imaging Proposals.
    • Catalyst Central finished finalizing a plan for the programmer template of the forms. This online submission system will become available in several months.
