Clinical research is a specialized scientific discipline that is primarily concerned with the testing of new drugs, medical devices, vaccines and biologics in humans. Clinical research enables researchers to find out the safety and efficacy of these products before they are marketed to the general population. Clinical research is the natural progression from preclinical research i.e. animal phases of testing.
A number of career opportunities exist in this area for life science graduates. Career opportunities can be explored with pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations, research institutes, hospitals, multi-speciality clinics conducting research, government regulatory bodies etc.
