Calpendo is a web-based system used to book and schedule resources within the Clinical Research Unit (CRU). This system will replace the current email-based method of requesting a visit for research subjects in the CRU.

Calpendo will allow our clinical staff see when and where rooms are open and available to schedule and avoid the problem of requesting a date and time for a visit after speaking to research participants.  

Once Calpendo orientation has been completed, all research staff that currently use the email system to schedule in the CRU will be able to use Calpendo.
