Co-Pilot Program

The UMCCTS operates a Co-Pilot Program for all investigators.  When a PPP or CPP proposal is funded, the Director of the Pilot Programs assigns a Co-Pilot, who is the project's link between the investigators and all resources available through the UMCCTS.  The Co-Pilot
  • reviews the project.
  • assists investigators in developing an implementation plan.
  • connects investigators to appropriate UMMS resources, internal and external.
