Trial coordination

The Center serves as a coordinating center for complex, multi-site, and international trials, collaborating with peers around the world to design, conduct, and synthesize high-quality studies across an array of health topics. 

Evidence synthesis

Our Center conducts systematic reviews and meta-analyses of data and findings from published literature to synthesize findings and inform clinical practice. 

Methodology

Our faculty offer expertise in coordinating, applying, and developing conventional and innovative methodologies for conducting and reporting clinical trials and systematic reviews. We design, deploy, and teach the full spectrum of investigative methodologies related to clinical trials, evidence syntheses, and related reporting. Through the Trial Advisor Program, our expert faculty consult with peers on study design, trial operations, and analysis plans.  

Graduate training

The Center offers graduate-level training within the Department of Epidemiology. Students can enroll in introductory and advanced courses in clinical trials, data management, and trial analysis techniques across a range of health care disciplines as well as courses in epidemiologic methods, systematic reviews, meta-analysis, and network meta-analysis.
