Network of Research Centers
Making it easier for our research sites to compete as one.

PRCCI has been established for you, the research centers of our network. We are a non-profit organization created to improve the quality, speed and volume of research in Puerto Rico. We work on your behalf to identify and secure research opportunities, conduct contract and budget negotiations, provide process improvement training and assistance, provide access to a CTMS system, and more.

We also facilitate knowledge sharing and continuous improvement. We host frequent panel sessions for member research sites to meet and discuss current events in the industry, provide feedback on our performance, and seek joint solutions.

By working with us, the implementation of your clinical research studies will be more efficient, allowing your team to focus on your patients.
