Raleigh, N.C., May 28, 2014 - (ACN Newswire) - INC Research, a leading, global Phase I to IV clinical research organization (CRO), today announced a two-year partnership with the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS), the first and only global trade organization fully dedicated to representing the interests of clinical research sites.

This move further underscores INC's continued focus on and commitment to this key stakeholder group, which plays a pivotal role in bringing new therapies to market.
"We're excited to become an active voice in a community that fully recognizes and supports the critical role of sites in the clinical development process," said INC Research CEO Jamie Macdonald.
