How clinical research can grow a medical practice.

Clinical research investigators can use many different tools available to them through their practice and the study sponsor to ensure that they are active enrolling clinical research sites, such as study-specific Web sites, dedicated information lines, and educational sessions. If these tools are approved by the study sponsor and used properly through outreach in conjunction with proper processes and internal controls, a clinical research study will facilitate growth within a medical practice while ensuring that the investigators become or continue to be key opinion leaders within their specialty.
