Academic Cell and Research Center: The Academic Cell and Research Center
(ACRC), the clinical unit of the CARE Foundation was started in July 1999 under the guidance of CARE Foundation
and CARE Hospital to promote research in various areas like drug trials,
in-house and international projects. The team comprises of a
Coordinator, Research Associates and Research Assistants who coordinate
the various activities and maintain quality in research as per ICH/GCP
and ICMR guidelines. The ACRC has an Institutional Ethics Committee
(IEC) where Ethical and other relevant issues are discussed. Every
clinical study conducted has to have the approval of the IEC before its
commencement. There are
currently 13 studies being carried out under the ACRC of which 11 are
International studies. There are about six publications and more than 15
abstracts made in Journals from the data generated in the registry and
