Annotation

The Czech Clinical Research Infrastructure Network (VVI CZECRIN) is a national infrastructure for clinically oriented biomedical research, carried out by non-commercially initiated clinical trials. Under the leadership of Masaryk University (MUNI) in cooperation with the Faculty Hospital near St. Anna in Brno (FNUSA) has created a long-term sustainable clinical research expert network with the involvement of faculty hospitals and university workplaces. The long-term goal of the CZECRIN VVI is to increase the quality and number of non-commercial clinical studies taking place in the Czech Republic and at the same time in cooperation with ECRIN-ERIC their implementation at international level. The impact of non-commercial clinical studies is crucial, given that they are dealing with key issues in clinical practice, often in areas neglected by the pharmaceutical industry. Their results are provided by the necessary independent Evidence-Based Data (EBM), which can positively influence the recommendations of professional companies and streamline the healthcare system for our patients.
