The Center for Clinical Research (CCR) was established in 2005 to promote and facilitate clinical and translational research at the former Medical University of Ohio (MUO). In 2008, with a generous $2M endowment from Dr. and Mrs. Julius H. Jacobson II, the CCR was renamed the “Jacobson Center for Clinical & Translational Research” (JCCTR) in honor of the donors.
All services are provided free of charge to principal investigators and clinical study coordinators. The Division provides monthly education and training sessions in Good Clinical Practices for Research and informs the clinical research community of new opportunities for industry sponsored clinical trials.
