Clinical research is an inevitable but critical part of the drug discovery and development process. Despite witnessing challenges in the recent past, a few areas of clinical research have grown in importance, being critical to study quality areas such as Data Management, Pharmacovigilance, health economics continue to be critical to the research process. This requires trained resources who can leverage such knowledge and apply the same in the industry. At AHERF, we recognize the shortage of industry ready clinical research professionals in India and therefore we have developed a set of carefully evaluated programs:
