"Our efforts help keep clinical studies on schedule, on budget and the quality of the data generated high, while enabling sponsors, CROs and trial sites to effectively make patient needs and concerns a top priority. The role of clinical research sites is central to trial performance and success, and we look forward to working with SCRS and its other GIPs to ensure greater collaboration and communication with clinical research sites around the world."
