Abstract: Uppsala Clinical Research center is the leading clinical Academic Research Organization (ARO) in Sweden, providing in-house expertise. Our services include management of clinical studies, biostatistics, clinical quality registries, and clinical event adjudication.
UCR started in 2001 as a clinical research center within Uppsala University and Uppsala University Hospital, with an aim to support qualified clinical research to improve health and healthcare practice.
The UCR experienced teams are knowledgeable in conducting both observational studies, in collaboration with regional, academic, or independent researchers, as well as large, global, complex, randomized clinical trials together with global medical corporations, in pharmaceuticals and medical devices.
The presentation will describe the basics for performing a clinical study, with a specific focus on medical devices.
