Clinical Research Unit (CRU) at MetroHealth
In its 44th year of funding, the newly renamed Clinical Research Unit (CRU) at MetroHealth Medical Center is a resource where qualified investigators have opportunities to advance medical knowledge from the laboratory bench to the clinical bedside.
Our mission is to provide:
- A multidisciplinary controlled environment for performing quality clinical research that fosters the exchange of ideas and information among disciplines
- A collegial atmosphere where clinical and basic scientists can collaborate to define, study and work out disease-related problems that lead to improved patient care
- Adult and Pediatric facilities for inpatients and outpatients
- Experienced nursing, dietary, laboratory, computing, biostatistical and administrative personnel who are available to provide professional support and consultation
If you would like to learn more about utilizing CRU resources for a research protocol,
