Resources

The most important Clinical Trials Unit resource is our personnel. We employ more than 10 Research Nurse Coordinators/Research Coordinators as well as 3 Research Assistants to assist in the day-to-day management of subjects in clinical trials, representing the largest cadre of clinical research staff within UTHSC. We also provide dedicated contracting, budgeting, and regulatory support staff.

We provide investigational product and specimen storage, laboratory support, and specimen processing. The CTU location on the UTHSC campus provides a -70°C freezer which is adequate for the most restrictive IP and specimen storage requirements. We have a full-service research clinic equipped for physical exams, phlebotomy, and space for investigators and their research staff.

Though our staff can work in any location, our specific locations have full-service research operational capabilities.
