Maidenhead
The Institute of Clinical Research (ICR) is the probably the oldest independent
membership-led professional body for global clinical researchers. For over 40
years, The Institute of Clinical Research (ICR) has provided high quality
training, networking and support to the clinical research community. For many
Members the Institute has been part of their life throughout their working
careers, many have been with the Institute since its first incarnation as the
ACRPI. It is the membership that makes the Institute. How does it all work ? The
Institute of Clinical Research is you, the Membership governed by the Articles
of Memorandum drawn up by the founding members. The Board is made up of members
who give their time freely to guide the future direction of the ICR. The ICR
Secretariat is the administrative arm of the Institute, its primary focus is to
ensure that the wishes of the Board and Membership are carried out and to see to
the day to day tasks that any membership organisation generates. Our Mission The
ICR exists to support our members through all stages of their careers. We do
this, in part, by: Defining and refining standards for our profession Providing
a forum for discussion of key issues impacting clinical research Promoting good
relations with other healthcare related groups Providing opportunities for
learning and development to enhance professional competence Enhancing public
confidence and understanding of clinical research
