The mission of the Division of Clinical Research is to improve quality of care through coordinated, compliant execution of clinical research and enhance the development of faculty, residents and students through their involvement in the clinical research effort.
The DCR has experience in Phase I through Phase IV studies, pharmaceutical and device industry sponsored, as well as investigator initiated research protocols.
The DCR’s services are available to all physicians and other clinical research investigators within the institution. Services include contract and budget negotiation, research account management, study coordination provided by research nurses (RNs), and preparation of all Institutional Review Board documents.
In addition, the DCR actively markets the institution’s clinical trial capabilities and networks with all four TTUHSC campuses to inform faculty of potential clinical trials.
The DCR also provides opportunities for education in clinical research through monthly “Hot Topics in Clinical Research,” a clinical research coordinator training course, as well as assisting the Human Research Protection Office with a primary investigator training course.
The Division of Clinical Research is committed to providing patients with access to cutting-edge medical care.
