Kursens syfte | This course provides the participant with the knowledge needed to secure the quality in clinical research. It gives an understanding of what is required to act safely and in accordance with local and national legislation, ethical guidelines and international treaty's when involved in clinical research. The course is useful for those working with translational or clinical laboratory research. It is valuable for researchers working with patient quality registries, other types of health registries and in epidemiology. It gives great value to researchers concerned with interventional studies including medicinal products, surgical treatments or pharmaceutical treatments. Beyond the competence you will get, you can also take a test for an internationally recognized certificate in ICH-GCP (International Conference of Harmonisation - Good Clinical Practice). Regardless of your research area, you will after this course understand how to protect patient's safety, and how to create trustful data. |

Arbetsformer | The course is based on e-learning. There are two tracks, in part parallel. One track is based on group work around cases that are presented to the course. The other track is based on individual studies of GCP regulations. Both tracks include study material and tutor support. The pedagogy is based on flipped classroom meaning that instructions and learning resources will be made available early to support the individual learning and group works. Cases and their solutions will be presented and discussed under teachers supervision. Q&A will be provided. The GCP studies will be supported by MC self tests. Webinars may be provided, pending the need from the course. |
Obligatoriska moment | Each student must participate in a group work. Each student must show activity on the course's home page with at least five questions, presentation and/or comments on others postings. Absence or lack of online activity can after the examiner's assessment be compensated by an individually written essay. |
Examination | In addition to an approved group work there will be an individual multiple choice examination. |

Urval av studenter | Selection will be based on 1) the relevance of the course syllabus for the applicant's doctoral project (according to written motivation), 2) date for registration as a doctoral student (priority given to earlier registration date). |
Övrig information | This course is web-based with dedicated time for groupwork, lectures and more. It provides a general introduction to operational conduct in research ethics and how to achieve high quality in scientific work. It is well suited for young researchers in the fields of laborative work, epidemiological research or clinical studies. |
