The Clinical Research Professionals Group is committed to achieving
and promoting excellence in cancer clinical research by way of the
specialised contribution of research professionals 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.
- To foster research within the scope of clinical research data management.
