General Clinical Research Center

贝勒医学院综合临床研究中心(GCRC)的总体目标是提供 一个以患者为中心的研究环境，有助于增进对各种疾病的了解 过程，允许更好的治疗和诊断方法，为临床研究人员提供培训，以及 促进进行临床研究的研究人员之间的协作。 GCRC支持的研究范围包括儿科学、医学、过敏/免疫学、遗传学、产科 和妇科、外科、新生儿、细胞和基因治疗、血液学/肿瘤学、内分泌学、 传染病、神经病学、胃肠病学和营养学。每个提交的协议必须有IRB 批准并接受GCRC科学咨询委员会的审查，重点是科学价值， 研究设计、分析和患者安全。一旦委员会批准，调查员就可以利用 GCRC及其资源。 贝勒医学院的综合临床研究中心已经在德克萨斯儿童医院开放。 医院，并通过NCRR在美国国立卫生研究院支持了41年。GCRC的结构是为了适应 在贝勒学院各个院系的适当地点开展以病人为中心的研究活动 医学。一个单一的行政结构既支持GCRC的儿科单位，也支持成人单位。这个 德克萨斯儿童医院的儿科病房包括一个独立的住院病房，由六张病床组成， 门诊部，新生儿重症监护病房内的专门新生儿研究卫星单位， 以及儿科和成人单位均可使用的基因治疗核心实验室。成人卫星 该单位由卫理公会医院内的每日护理单位和位于 贝勒诊所大楼的12层。

The overall goal of the General Clinical Research Center (GCRC) at Baylor College of Medicine is to provide an environment for patient-oriented research which leads to an improved understanding of various disease processes, allows for better methods of treatment and diagnosis, offers training for clinical investigators, and facilitates the collaboration of investigators conducting clinical research. The GCRC supports studies ranging from Pediatrics, Medicine, Allergy/Immunology, Genetics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Surgery, Neonatology, Cell and Gene Therapy, Hematology/Oncology, Endocrinology, Infectious Disease, Neurology, Gastroenterology, and Nutrition. Each protocol submission must have IRB approval and undergo a review by the GCRC Scientific Advisory Committee focusing on scientific merit, study design, analysis and patient safety. Once approved by the Committee, an investigator can utilize the GCRC and its resources. The General Clinical Research Center at Baylor College of Medicine has been open at Texas Children's Hospital and supported through the NCRR at NIH for 41 years. The GCRC is structured to accommodate patient-oriented research activities at appropriate sites throughout various departments of Baylor College of Medicine. A single administrative structure supports both the Pediatric and Adult Units of the GCRC. The Pediatric Unit at Texas Children's Hospital includes a discrete inpatient unit consisting of six patient beds, an outpatient clinic, specialized Neonatal Research Satellite Unit located within the neonatal intensive care unit, as well as a gene therapy core laboratory available to both the pediatric and adult units. The Adult Satellite Unit consists of a per diem unit within The Methodist Hospital as well as adult outpatient facilities located on the 12th floor of the Baylor Clinic building.
