Strategic consulting

Through our work in the military research corridor and alliances with world-class university researchers including Case Western, UNC, SUNY Upstate,  we have established a strong network of consulting physicians and scientists with expertise in clinical research. This collaborative effort developed into our Medical Experts Office, which now offers consulting services for clinical trial design, regulatory strategy, and all aspects of medical product development. Additional strategic consulting services are offered by members with decades of experience in biotech and pharma, as well as government research centers.

Global clinical operations

ICON IGP provides the full portfolio of ICON services needed to conduct GCP-compliant clinical trials, including study design and protocol development, regulatory consultations and submissions, site selection, data management, clinical monitoring, quality assurance, medical writing, and staff training.
