The Duke Clinical Research Unit (DCRU) is a Duke resource available to investigators for the conduct of clinical trials in either adult or pediatric populations. For non-commercial clinical trials funded by NIH, foundations, investigators’ departments, and similar funding mechanisms, the DCRU provides, at no charge:
- space,
- nursing support,
- core laboratory support,
- statistical support for study design and analysis, and
- metabolic kitchen support
A new DCRU Pilot Project seeks to support investigators by offering partial funding for NIH and investigator-initiated studies utilizing DCRU services. This funding may be used to support outpatient services including laboratory tests and ancillary services.
Grants between $500 and $10,000 are available to support these studies.
