Off-site Research
VA research is an intramural program derived from clinician observation of the health problems and needs of veterans. The opportunity to explore research based upon these observations in laboratory and other appropriate settings within VA medical centers provides a strong foundation for this program. However, in rare situations, VA medical centers may be unable to provide sufficient or appropriate space and facilities for specific research projects. To accommodate such programs, ORD reviews and evaluates all VA-funded research proposed to be performed at sites outside VA medical centers or outside VA-leased space previously approved by ORD for research use.
