About SCRS
Strengthening the Global Site Voice
Our Mission
Unify the voice of the global clinical research site community for greater site sustainability.
The Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) is the leading voice among clinical research site advocacy organizations, dedicated to unifying the voice of the global clinical research site community. Representing more than 12,000+ site members globally, SCRS facilitates research site community leadership with conversations dedicated to site-focused advocacy, education, mentorship and connection.
SCRS was founded by Christine Pierre in 2012 on a core belief that sites have long been the silent partner in the research enterprise. Sites are at the center of every clinical trial, yet they often face growing pressure, from changing regulations, staffing challenges, tight timelines, and decisions made without site input. SCRS exists to give sites the support, resources, and unified voice they’ve long needed through sponsor, CRO, and site collaboration.

Four Pillars. One Mission.
SCRS supports the sustainability of clinical research sites by advocating for site perspectives, supporting professional development, and strengthening collaboration across the clinical research ecosystem.
