The VHA Office of Research & Development (ORD) is pleased to announce the 2010 ORD Local Accountability for Research Meeting. This coming year ORD will have one meeting for about 450 participants, instead of a series of smaller meetings. ORD will pay for travel for up to three representatives from each VA facility with a Federalwide Assurance (FWA). These representatives will include the following (please - no substitutions):

ACOS/R&D

AO/R&D

Research Compliance Officer

Deputy ACOSs, AOs and RCOs are also welcome

The meeting will target the respective roles and responsibilities of individuals holding these 3 positions, and how they can work together to enhance their local research program. It will also provide an opportunity to network with others who have similar responsibilities, and with ORD and Office of Research Oversight (ORO) staff.
