Overview
This Good Clinical Practice (GCP) for Laboratories course offered by The University of Edinburgh is intended primarily for lab staff who handle human samples but is also suitable for research nurses and other staff who regularly process bloods, use centrifuges and store samples.
Key facts
This 2.5 hour course covers the importance of GCP for Labs and how to apply it in research studies.
Clinical research laboratories that analyse samples for Clinical Trials of Investigational Medicinal Products (CTIMPs) i.e. drug trials, must comply with the principles of Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP) and these labs are open to inspection by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
However, it is desirable for staff in any lab, or area that handles and stores human samples, to be aware of GCLP and comply as far as possible.
This course will be delivered online via MS Teams.
