Components in the F-CRIN Infrastructure

F-CRIN has approved 12 clinical investigation networks, 3 expertise networks and 2 service platforms, based on national coordination, i.e. 18 components.

Networks for excellence in clinical research

The F-CRIN-approved networks for excellence in clinical research lead original and internationally appealing scientific programmes. These programmes have targeted themes with major potential for development and benefit from renowned collective scientific and methodological expertise with a strong capacity for research.

Expertise networks

The F-CRIN expertise networks bring together at the national level the skills of experts in targeted themes for the design and conduct of clinical research protocols.

Service platforms for multi-themed and specialised clinical research

The F-CRIN expertise platforms are able to offer “Researcher/Promoter” teams a complete array of services ranging from assistance designing and setting up clinical trials to analysing and exploiting collected data.
