The Role of a CRO

CROs (Contract Research Organizations) carry out a part or all of the work involved in the clinical trials process of pharmaceutical product development on behalf of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. As specialists in new drug development, a CRO’s tasks can span many areas, including monitoring whether or not clinical trials are conducted in strict compliance with applicable laws and regulations, data management, and medical writing.
