Clinical research sites often encounter numerous hidden costs that are not fully covered by standard study budgets. These unfunded yet essential study activities are a longstanding problem for the sustainability of research sites and their studies.
Join SCRS for an in-person Hidden Costs Workshop providing a foundation for more productive budgeting discussions and ensure your studies have enough resources to be successful.
