Overview
The Clinical Trials and Research Professionals Group (CTRPG) is committed to achieving and promoting excellence in clinical cancer research by supporting research professionals through education, information, leadership, and by providing networking opportunities.
Members of CTRPG are professionals involved in clinical cancer research involved in the collection and management of oncology data. Membership is open, but not limited to, clinical trial coordinators, investigators and research nurses, clinical trial managers, data managers, clinical research associates and health information managers who support clinical cancer research.
In alliance with the interests and objectives of COSA, the CTRPG aims to:
- promote and maintain the quality standards of clinical trial coordination in oncology research in Australia and New Zealand
- respond to the dynamic needs of members by providing continuing education
- provide a forum for discussion and exchange of experiences and information
- strengthen relationships across professional disciplines and with cooperative oncology groups
- foster research within the scope of clinical trials management
The agreed objectives of the CTRPG are documented in Group Terms of Reference which include the establishment of an Executive Committee to maintain a strategic focus for the Group.
All members of the CTRPG Executive are committed to ensuring that our Group continues to be relevant to our membership and fosters research within the scope of clinical trials management.
