• UCF College of Medicine Research Office 
  The Research Office team supports faculty in identifying funding opportunities, reviewing grant proposals, and providing general guidance in their research. Their offices are located in the Burnett building on the Lake Nona campus.
• Research and Publication Support for Faculty
• Institutional Review Board  – The Institutional Review Board (IRB) consists of a committee established to advocate for the protection of the rights and welfare of human participants involved in research. Review and approval is required for all research involving human participants conducted by the University of Central Florida. Approval must be obtained prior to including human participants in an investigation. IRB Policy defines, in detail, the operations of the Institutional Review Board, its scope of authority, and the requirements for human subjects research conducted by or in collaboration with UCF.
•  UCF IACUC – The Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) is a group that ensures the humane treatment of research animals. Research facilities must appoint one in accordance with the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) and the PHS Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.
• Pivot as a Collaboration Tool provides information about how to setup and publish your scholarly profile so potential collaborators can find you, as well as how to track and/or be notified of funding opportunities.
• Funding Opportunities – A webpage sponsored by ORC that provides information to help faculty identify both internal and external funding opportunities.
• Workshops and Seminars sponsored by the ORC – This webpage highlights the various trainings offered by ORC that assist faculty throughout the research development process.
• Office of Research & Commercialization –  The Office of Research & Commercialization (ORC) serves UCF scholars as the official liaison between UCF and funding sources and by helping faculty work through the proposal and contract management process. The Commercialization branch of the ORC guides scientists and inventors through the complex patenting and commercialization process. The ORC website provides information which assists university scholars with the announcement, application and post-award stages, and familiarizes prospective partners with the breadth of funded research conducted at the university.
• Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative – The Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) Program is a subscription service providing research ethics education to all members of the research community. All faculty members, as well as anyone involved on a research team or study, are required to complete the components of the CITI program that are relevant to their program of research.

The Works in Progress interest group is a platform for educators and researchers to collaborate with other faculty members across disciplines to discover research in progress. From the idea stage to completion, to finding mentors and collaborators, to learning about resources and processes, the Works in Progress group aims to create connections and provide assistance for faculty members interested in completing research. For more information about this program, please contact Amanda.Blom@ucf.edu.
