The Harvard-Thorndike
General Clinical Research Center
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
The Harvard - Thorndike General Clinical Research
Center is funded by the NIH National Center for Research Resources to provide
clinical scientists the resources necessary to conduct patient-oriented
research. The primary purpose of the GCRC is to provide the clinical research
infrastructure to investigators who receive their primary research funding from
other components of the NIH. The Center may host investigators funded by other
federal, state, and local agencies, as well as those funded by the private
sector. The GCRC also serves as an institutional resource for investigators to
perform pilot studies which may result in subsequent agency funding.
The primary goals of the Harvard - Thorndike
General Clinical Research Center are:
-
To provide an environment for studies of
normal and abnormal body function and for investigations of the cause,
progression, prevention, control, and cure of human disease.
-
To provide an optimal setting for
controlled clinical investigations by scientists supported through the Public
Health Service or other sources.
-
To encourage, develop and maintain a
corps of expert clinical investigators.
-
To serve as an environment for training
other health professionals in clinical research and to provide resources in
which advances in basic scientific knowledge may be translated into new or
improved methods for patient care.
