The Clinical Trials Community of Practice (CT-CoP) is a community of trialists who seek innovative solutions to barriers, exchange best practices for conducting clinical trials, and share information on accessing ICTR and SMPH resources for clinical trials. All principal investigators, clinical providers and scientists who are interested in conducting clinical trials at UW, UW Health, UnityPoint Health-Meriter, and the VA are invited to join the group.
- Our group mission is to develop innovative solutions to conducting all kinds of clinical trials, including those initiated by investigators and those sponsored by industry.
- Our goals are to build capacity for principal investigators and clinicians interested in clinical trials, promote mentoring, share best practices, and work to remove barriers.
Upcoming meetings:
Wednesday, March 18, 2026 at noon: “Emergency Medicine Research Program: Bedside to Breakthroughs” with Phoebe Natzke, Lex Oliver, Helena Ikenberry, and Jennie Matthews from the BerbeeWalsh Department of Emergency Medicine at UW-Madison. The presenters will discuss why research in emergency medicine (EM) is important and how or why research in EM can/should integrate with research in other clinical specialties. Then they will describe the portfolio program that they run in the clinical environments at UH and EMH, and tips/tricks they use to manage a portfolio of complex research protocols in dynamic environments where all research activities happen in the context of unscheduled clinical encounters. This event takes place via Zoom.
