Submitting a Concept Sheet + Data Request 

Internal Investigators:
Please complete the CCASAnet Concept Sheet template and send your concept sheet to Hilary Vansell Riley, who will assist with circulating to the appropriate Working Group (WG) for review. Once the WG has reviewed, you may upload your concept to the CCASAnet Hub for approvals. 

External Investigators:
CCASAnet welcomes data requests and concept sheet proposals from all external investigators. If you would like to submit a new concept sheet, please visit the CCASAnet Data Request survey to get started. You will complete a concept sheet based on the type of data you are requesting, and then submit the form. Reach out to Program Manager, Hilary Vansell Riley if you have any questions. 

Concept Approval
A CCASAnet Working Group will be assigned to review your concept, once they have approved it will be uploaded to the CCASAnet Hub for the CCASAnet Executive Committee for a vote. If approved, each CCASAnet site will then assess whether their cohort a) has the data requested for the project, b) wishes to contribute data to the project, and c) is able to provide the data in the necessary time frame. Use of CCASAnet data is restricted to the scope of the approved project.
Publication Procedure 

Once your work is completed, follow the proper procedure for review of scientific products (manuscript, abstract) detailed in the Concept Workflow SOP. Properly cite the CCASAnet grant using the standard CCASAnet Acknowledgement document.
