We are committed to supporting the research of clinical trials by providing training, mentoring, and clinical trial management services. Continue reading below on how Stellar Health can help you get started as a Principal Investigator (PI).
Getting Started
You will receive education on the conduct of research, FDA, ICH, HIPAA, and GCP guidlines from the Research Manager. It is also expected that you will complete GCP/CITI training online before you begin participation in clinical trials with Stellar Health. This course concentrates on the portion of GCP that governs human subjects protections. Stellar Health will provide you with the links needed to access GCP training and certification. Your certificate of GCP training will become an essential part of the documents that clinical research sponsors will review in qualifying you as a clinical investigator. Additional documents needed to begin are a current, signed and dated CV and medical license. Please provide your signed and dated CV in Word or PDF format.
Resources
There are other resources you can access to increase your knowledge and skill as a clinical investigator. The local chapter of the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) holds meetings throughout the year which include educational sessions including CEUs. Stellar Health will connect you with the local chapter if you would like to participate. Joining ACRP will also provide you a copy of the monthly magazine “Clinical Researcher” which will keep you current with clinical research topics and controversies and connect you with the clinical research community at-large. ACRP also offers certification as a clinical research physician which raises your professional standing with clinical trial sponsors and ensures your placement in upcoming clinical trials. Let us know if you are interested in pursuing this prestigious certification.
