Clinical Trial Coordinator Support Services

The Internal Medicine Clinical Trials Unit has a pool of clinical research coordinators (including a Regulatory coordinator) to support investigators in the conduct of clinical trials. If you are an investigator and need study coordinator support, please contact Mary Jane Tinnes (maryjane.tinnes@hsc.utah.edu) to discuss your study support needs.

An integral component in the successful conduct of a clinical trial is the Clinical Research Coordinator, or Study Coordinator.

The coordinator is involved early in the clinical trial process, and assists in the development of the study budget. Coordinators also ensure that all of the regulatory requirements are met and essential documentation (including IRB approval) is collected. The coordinator will often help identify potential study subjects, obtain written informed consent, schedule protocol-required assessments and procedures, and ensure all necessary study data are collected and entered into the case report form.
