Clinical Research Operations Support Services
Biostatistics & Research Design Center
The Biostatistics and Research Design Center provides biostatistical and methodological expertise, and scientific leadership through collaborative relationships with investigators, as well as educational offerings.
Clinical Research Operations Core
The clinical research professionals of the Clinical Research Operations Core provide exceptional support and service to investigators conducting clinical research studies at Boston Children’s Hospital. The core supports a full spectrum of studies from high-risk interventional trials with experimental therapeutics, and experimental drugs and devices, to the minimal-risk observational clinical research studies
Supporting researchers through Harvard Catalyst
Support is provided to investigators at all stages of protocol development and study conduct in order to ensure that research is designed in such a way to maximize benefits and minimize risks to participants in clinical research studies. Partial funding for these services is from the Harvard Catalyst, an NIH-funded Harvard Clinical and Translational Sciences Award (CTSA), which provides increased opportunities for investigator education and collaborations across the Harvard teaching hospitals.
