Mission

We are responsible for assisting with the development of clinical research projects as well as transitioning clinical trials from Phase I to Phase II and to Phase III. We develop marketing plans, standard operating procedures (SOPs), personnel training plans and policies to guide all clinical research. We work with investigators, industry sponsors and governmental funding agencies, and assure compliance with all regulatory requirements including IND submissions and IRB approvals. We serve as the primary liaison to ensure that appropriately experienced and trained research staff are available as needed to support clinical trial activities.
