In this 90-minute audio conference you will learn the following:
Working knowledge of good clinical
practice (GCP) and regulations regarding human subject protection. Key
to good practice is implementing training and education into your
research practice.
Understand the differences between clinical practice and clinical research.
Bringing clinical research to your
practice is a big commitment. Tips on getting buy-in from all your
staff members so they don’t view their added duties as an imposition.
Who will lead your team as
principal investigator? Guidance on “reading” your interested
physicians and garnering their support as sub-investigators.
Understand the practical aspects
of conducting clinical trials…how to decide which trials best fit your
site’s resources and patient population…and how to evaluate protocols
for feasibility.
How to develop a marketing plan to recruit patients. Without patients/subjects to populate the study, there would be no study.
