Research LaunchPad

A comprehensive collection of resources to guide you through each of the major stages of a research project.

All researchers are required to conduct research in a manner that meets the standards of the Melbourne Children’s campus and National guidance protects the safety of all research participants and facilitates the generation of high-quality data.

This LaunchPad provides guidance, procedures, and templates to help you conduct your research involving participants efficiently while meeting these standards. These resources have been developed and compiled by the Clinical Research Development Office (CRDO) and Melbourne Children's Trials Centre (MCTC) and are based on:

• The Royal Children's Hospital and Murdoch Children's Research Institute Campus policies
• National/International guidance

We hope they will support researchers to conduct high-quality research including clinical trials and observational research, and we ask that you please acknowledge the Murdoch Children's Research Institute when using these resources in your research.
