Greetings!
 Welcome to the first of our 'NIS Considerations' newsletters of 2010.
We hope that this newsletter finds you well and wish you a happy, peaceful and productive New Year.
We've decided to make this a 'lite' newsletter so that we can all catch our breath before we race into another new and exciting year. So expect a more comprehensive newsletter next month.
Sincerely,

Free Clinical Research Resources
CHCUK have Produced some Complimentary Clinical Research Resources Which May be of Interest
CHCUK have recently produced some complimentary clinical research resources which are available to download from our website.
The 'informed consent' report is of direct relevance to non-interventional studies, whereas the other 2 reports are not directly relevant but may still be of interest to you.
We are also currently producing detailed reports on the informed consent considerations for Europe which follow the idea of the 'NIS Reports' but are much more detailed. Please note that we do charge for this service. If you are interested please do contact us for further details at info@chcuk.co.uk or call us at +44 (0) 1997 42 33 11.
