What researchers are saying “Having led a number of randomized controlled trials in rare neuro-ophthalmic conditions, I understand the importance of an excellent clinical trial unit. The CTSU team has been responsive, timely, and knowledgeable, making the swift set up and delivery of this trial possible.” Susan Mollan, MB cHB, FRCOphth, PhD Neuro-ophthalmologist “They were absolutely critical in developing a rigorous protocol and submitting the extensive paperwork to CTO. They were ALWAYS kind, positive and non-judgemental even when I felt I was out of my depth. There is zero chance I could have accomplished this study start-up without them.” Jordan Leitch, FRCPC, Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine “The team provided invaluable support by assigning a research coordinator with prior experience in dementia trials. With the support of the CTSU, KHSC has once again become an active site within the national dementia trials network, C5R. They have consistently been knowledgeable, supportive, and helpful.” Durjoy Lahiri MD DM, Cognitive and Behavioral Neurologist, Assistant Professor, Division of Neurology What researchers are saying “The CTSU team has been responsive, timely, and knowledgeable, making the swift set up and delivery of this trial possible.” Susan Mollan, MB cHB, FRCOphth, PhD Neuro-ophthalmologist “Having flexible support made a real difference. We could focus on the study instead of the logistics.” Principal investigator Ready to get started?
