About Regulatory Council
The Regulatory Council consists of working in the regulatory departments of both sponsors as well as CROs. The effort has been to engage stakeholders and regulators in a process of continuous dialogue so that the voice of the clinical research fraternity is appropriately articulated to the decision makers.
The aims of the Regulatory Council are to:
- Establish a rapport with key regulators involved in policy making / regulations involving clinical research in the country.
- To engage with the DCGI and other influencers within the government particularly ICMR, senior bureaucrats associated with the Health Ministry, etc on the regulatory framework for clinical research in India.
- To conduct innovative training programs across the country on the regulatory aspects of clinical trial applications, namely filings and approvals.
