"Our Board of Directors, program organizers, presenters, chapter leaders, and staff members are working to meet your needs in the areas of clinical research education, certification, and professional development. Our mission is to promote quality clinical research to protect the welfare of research participants and improve global health. In this time of a global pandemic and accelerated effort to find solutions to perform clinical research on a number of vaccines and therapies to combat COVID-19, the work of our members and stakeholders have become a worldwide “center of attention” as they strive so diligently to find cures and ways to control the virus. Even as the current efforts are absolutely important, research in all other areas of medicine continues and SOCRA programming is here to enhance the knowledge and skills of clinical researchers around the world"
