The Cedars-Sinai Clinical and Translational Research Center (CTRC) is designed to serve the needs of clinical research in a variety of settings, both inpatient and outpatient. The CTRC at Cedars provides clinical support services in an outpatient facility located in the Steven Spielberg Building of the Medical Center on Alden Drive in Los Angeles. Additional facilities include a processing lab and a DXA imaging procedure room.
Each of our rooms offers subjects a comfortable reclining lounger or a hospital bed. Each room is equipped with flat screen TVs and DVD players to help subjects relax through long procedures, while receiving excellent care delivered by highly skilled certified research nurses.
One of our unique features is our mobility, allowing support of research activity in the field. Such “field” services include providing support in CSMC clinics, surgical units or inpatient units, and assisting with data or specimen collection from patients and their family members. We also have a Research Subject Advocate who oversees research and data safety issues in close collaboration with the clinical investigators who utilize the CTRC.
