The Clinical Research Professionals Group (formerly known as the Data Managers Group) is committed to achieving and promoting excellence in cancer clinical research through the professional contribution of data managers through education, information, leadership, networking and professionalism.
The group represents the people involved in cancer clinical research that includes collection and management of data within oncology research. This includes clinical trial coordinators, research nurses, clinical research managers, data managers, clinical research associates, and health information managers involved in research.
Our different roles have differing emphasis on functions. Many of the daily activities across these roles have commonalities that mean we have a great deal of experience to share with one another.
Aims
- To promote and maintain the quality standards of data management in clinical oncology research in Australia and New Zealand.
- To respond to the dynamic needs of data managers by providing continuing education.
- To provide a forum for discussion and exchange of experiences and information.
- To strengthen relationships across professional disciplines and with cooperative oncology groups.
