Case Report Forms include all relevant information about participants’ participation in the study: it is used to screen participants, track their progress through the experiment, and document all laboratory incidents. The use of Castor EDC and the creation of Case Report Forms is mandatory for all blanket studies in the DCCN and is strongly recommended.

You can begin creating your Castor forms once you have been issued a project number, which is possible once the Project Proposal Forms have been approved.
