Clinical Research Core

The PTRC offers supports to implement federal or non-federal funded multi-year or collaborative or individual research projects. The PTRC provides experienced research coordinators to assist junior and established investigators with the conduct of a clinical research protocol. The PTRC research coordinators will help the investigator coordinate all activities across different departments needed to implement the protocol, including investigational drug services, clinical lab, radiology, etc.

PTRC Clinical Research Core can provide a variety of services depending on the needs of the study.
