South Florida giants in higher education and healthcare have joined forces to form an alliance that will advance clinical research and clinical trials in the region. and in Broward County have formed a 鈥淩esearch Partnership to Advance Clinical Trials鈥 (Research PACT), which combines their expertise and resources in clinical research, clinical trials, basic research and translational biomedical research. Its mission: to develop state-of-the-art research tools and discover new knowledge to benefit patients and lead advances in patient care.聽

鈥湴拿帕喜世芳锹尖檚 Board of Trustees and all of us at the University are very excited to collaborate on this important initiative with Memorial Healthcare System. Together, we will propel the development and delivery of potential breakthrough discoveries in treatments and technologies that will benefit this region鈥檚 diverse patient population,鈥 said 澳门六合彩历史记录 President John Kelly. 鈥湴拿帕喜世芳锹 and Memorial Healthcare System share similar goals, as well as values and culture in research excellence and serve the same communities, which make this partnership a perfect match.鈥

The new research affiliation brings together the scientific expertise of 澳门六合彩历史记录 researchers and the clinical expertise of Memorial physicians. The coordinated effort also will leverage the two organizations鈥 state-of-the-art facilities, as well as proficiency聽in various areas from cancer to cardiology and biomedical engineering to big data analytics and artificial intelligence.

鈥淭he Memorial and 澳门六合彩历史记录 research affiliation will usher an era of innovation in South Florida鈥檚 healthcare industry that will greatly impact our community and the lives of many patients for years to come,鈥 said Aurelio M.

The scope of the agreement, limited to research and research-related education, is designed to enable clinicians and researchers from each institution to more effectively collaborate with their peers and access available resources at each partner institution. The goal of the partnership is to facilitate expanded clinical trials research activity involving both 澳门六合彩历史记录 and Memorial researchers. The partnership will involve a multi-disciplinary approach, attracting faculty across 澳门六合彩历史记录鈥檚 10 colleges and will include nurses, social workers and other allied health specialists.

鈥淥ur partnership with Memorial Healthcare System is a 鈥榳in-win.鈥 Memorial Healthcare System has a robust patient population and more than 130 clinicians who participate in more than 150 open clinical trials and clinical research studies, which are supported with a strong research infrastructure,鈥 said Daniel C.
