Czech Clinical Research
Infrastructure Network

CZECRIN

 

We provide comprehensive support for clinical research – from study design to implementation in a national network of clinical sites.

CZECRIN Objectives

Anchoring and Developing the National Infrastructure

To be a stable and internationally recognised research infrastructure. To be a key pillar of the Czech Republic’s involvement in European biomedical clinical research.

Supporting clinical research throughout its entire lifecycle

Systematically support all phases of clinical research – from the inception of a research plan to its clinical implementation – through expertise, technological capacity and methodological guidance.

Ensuring quality, ethics, and real-world impact

Enhance the quality, innovation and societal benefit of clinical trials while maintaining the highest scientific, ethical and regulatory standards and with a clear impact on patient care.

We pursue these objectives through the three main pillars of CZECRIN

Clinical Trial National Centre

We provide methodological and practical support for the preparation and implementation of clinical trials throughout the Czech Republic. We help teams across the CZECRIN network with coordination, study start-up and navigating regulatory and operational requirements.

CZECRIN Academy

We educate and certify clinical research professionals – from researchers to coordinators to student nurses. We offer courses and hands-on training that strengthen the quality and standards of clinical trials.

Networks

We build and connect clinical research networks in the Czech Republic and Europe. We support collaboration through DONETs, Phase I units and involvement in ECRIN-ERIC infrastructure.

DONETs

We connect experts and clinical sites focused on specific disease areas. DONETs promote collaboration, sharing of expertise and the development of high quality clinical trials.

Phase I units

Dedicated facilities for early phase clinical trials, including first-in-human studies. They provide a safe and highly controlled environment for challenging clinical trials.

ECRIN-ERIC

Linking CZECRIN to the European Clinical Research Infrastructure. It enables participation in international studies and supports cross-border collaboration of research teams.

Science and Research

We conduct and support clinical trials across the Czech Republic – from the early stages of research to the validation of innovative therapeutic approaches in clinical practice. We collaborate with research teams, healthcare institutions and international partners.
