Clinical Research Center (CRC)
Welcome to the Clinical Research Center (CRC) of the University of Rochester Medical Center.
We are located in the University of Rochester Medical Center’s G-5035
unit (ground floor) at 601 Elmwood Avenue, Rochester, New York; with a satellite location in the Saunders Research Building (Room 1.302). This
specialized unit is funded by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences within the National Institutes of Health by a grant to the University
(CTSA Grant No. UL1 TR 000042) to support clinical studies. The CRC is a
center that provides an optimal setting for medical investigators to
conduct safe, controlled, inpatient and outpatient studies of both
children and adults. Since 1960, our CRC has been funded to provide the
necessary infrastructure for investigators to conduct research studies.
Led by the Program Director, Giovanni Schifitto, MD, MS, and the Principal Investigator, Thomas A. Pearson, MD, MPH, PhD, the CRC facilities provide the environment and resources for medical research.
The CRC’s resources include highly trained research personnel in Nursing and Bionutrition.
The CRC team helps investigators facilitate the day-to-day research
process and assists the research subjects in a supportive and efficient
environment.
The CRC is available for faculty
investigators, their staff, and medical students working in the URMC
setting. In addition, drug company-sponsored clinical trials can be
conducted on this unit. Research techniques and experiences,
collaboration between investigators, individual growth for investigators
and research, and patient care and safety will all be enriched by
utilizing the CRC. We are pleased to be available to assist your
research team. Medical knowledge continues to grow—let us be a part of
your experience.
