Clinical Research Coordinators

Clinical research coordinators (CRCs) assist PIs in coordinating, managing, and implementing all activities involved in a research project. In addition to these roles, CRCs are the main link between the sponsor or clinical research organizations (CROs) and the PI. They also keep study participants aware of schedules and changes in the study protocol (plan).
