In 2008, N2 launched Version 1 of the Clinical Research Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Since then, the Clinical Research SOP Committee has thoroughly reviewed these SOPs every two years to ensure they align with the latest regulatory requirements and meet the evolving needs of N2 members. This work is crucial for the success of Canada’s clinical research enterprise and, thus, for expanding research opportunities for potential participants.
Sixteen years since Version 1 launched, our work on Version 11 is about to start! The Clinical Research SOP Committee Chair, Stephen Sundquist, invites expressions of interest from potential new Committee members. We are actively accepting applications from individuals willing to support the Committee in reviewing these SOPs. The selection process will consider current Committee membership and Terms of Reference requirements for diverse representation of clinical research expertise, geographic regions and other factors.
Joining the Clinical Research SOP Committee offers several benefits:
- Opportunity to step into an influential rolecontributing to advancing clinical research in Canada
- Boost your professional profile
- Forge new connections and network with colleagues at the forefront of clinical research
What is the time commitment?
- The Committee virtually meets approximately monthly during the SOP revision period between Septemberand March
- After the revised SOPs are released, the Committee meets on an ad hoc basis, typically twice a year, to review N2 member feedback and conduct additional business to fulfill its mandate
