Streamlining the Process of Working With Industry
Accomplishing all of these tasks requires coordination and communication between groups that span the Medical Center, including the Office of Sponsored Programs, the Institutional Review Board, the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, the Office of Clinical Research, core laboratories, not to mention the study sponsor.
That’s why the Center has a dedicated Alliance Management team—made up of experts with industry and academic experience—that handles the business development, administrative elements and paperwork involved in industry-sponsored studies, effectively taking the “work” out of “working with industry.”
Alliance Management can handle all the contracting, coordinating and communicating that it takes to ensure a successful industry study at Wake Forest Baptist.
You focus on the science; we will handle the paperwork.
