A Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) is the site-based professional who manages day-to-day clinical trial activities under investigator supervision.
CRC responsibilities include participant screening, informed consent coordination, visit scheduling, data entry, and regulatory documentation. The role is central to protocol adherence and accurate study conduct at the site level. CRCs support participant safety through timely reporting, documentation accuracy, and coordination with clinical care teams. Strong CRC performance contributes directly to data quality and audit readiness.
