Regulatory and ethical barriers exist to the application of scientific knowledge in the clinical care of patients, and appropriately so. A shameful history of human beings using other human beings as objects in unnecessary studies masquerading as science has let the human community to adopt specific regulatory and ethical standards that control what can be done by investigators who use human subjects in their research. Some of the regulations and ethical standards are daunting and they may thwart the conduct of appropriate research by those who do not understand them. The CRRE program is committed to providing education for all those involved in the transfer of knowledge from bench science to the clinical setting, and from the clinic to the laboratory, to assure that all necessary safeguards for human subjects are observed, and that no research is stifled by misunderstandings of the applicable regulatory and ethical criteria.

Starting dates in January and August.  Admissions Information
