Overview

Clinical research is essential to the advancement of medicine and is especially relevant in the oncology setting. Clinical care of patients on a clinical trial requires advanced regulatory knowledge to ensure optimal protocol adherence and medical management. This course will review best practices of clinical research for licensed providers and others who wish to deepen their understanding of the responsibilities of the clinical trial investigator and strengthen partnerships with the research team. Faculty will cover a range of topics, including:

— scientific communication;
— ethical considerations and subject protection;
— the lifecycle of translational and clinical research;
— recent advancements and FDA approvals;
— diversity in clinical trials with a focus on vulnerable populations;
— fostering community partnerships and referrals; and
— the importance of collaborative, team-based care.

Attendees will receive access to an online syllabus after the course concludes, which will include select recorded videos of the faculty presentations.

This course is designed for physician assistants, nurse practitioners, physicians, students, registered nurses, clinical pharmacy specialists, and other allied health professionals.

  1. Engage participants in a comprehensive learning experience using interdisciplinary didactic sessions highlighting team-based clinical research operations.
