CBQM Policies

Fee-for-Service

Our center operates on a fee-for-service basis. This means that we provide high-quality services in exchange for a fee. The CBQM is a University specialized service center, and our fees are based upon our expertise and efforts, ensuring that we can offer the best possible support to our collaborators.

Grant Proposal Submissions

To ensure we can provide the highest level of service, we require at least two months’ notice for grant proposal submissions. This lead time allows us to thoroughly review and prepare the necessary materials, ensuring your proposal is as strong as possible.

Collaboration Capacity and Availability

At any time, our current capacity may limit our ability to partner with you, and there may be a queue for services. We strive to accommodate as many requests as possible, but we are unable to handle last-minute requests for analyses on new projects (e.g., for abstract submissions).

Authorship

The CBQM aims to ensure fair and transparent attribution of credit for scholarly contributions. To that end, we expect CBQM faculty and staff to be included as co-authors on any resultant manuscript if they adhere to International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).
