The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) is all set to expand its Indian Clinical Trial and Education Network (INTENT), a collection of medical colleges and research institutes across the country, with the goal of providing evidence-based, scientifically sound and culturally sensitive solutions to health issues of national priority by conducting large, decisive, regulation compliant clinical trials. The network is invested in providing end-to-end solutions for clinical trials for Indian researchers.
Currently, the INTENT network comprises 47 institutes that encompass public and private medical colleges, hospitals and research institutes, including the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) institutes.
“ICMR now plans to expand the national network and accordingly invites expressions of interest from public and private medical research institutes in India to contribute to the INTENT activities,” the research agency said in its recent communication.
