Én indgang Nord - One entrance North

• 

“One entrance North” is part of the national network “One entrance” that includes all five Regions in Denmark. The network was established in 2013 by the Danish Government and the Danish Regions. The main objectives of “One entrance” are:

1. To increase the number of clinical trials with drugs and medical devices in Denmark
2. Shorten the time needed to complete clinical trials ( e.g. time from protocol to first patient, from first to last patient)
3. To increase support and collaboration between the public health care system and the industry

The industry uses “One entrance North” to help in finding investigators and health care professionals for conducting clinical trials. "Én indgang Nord" has made a list of names of all the investigators in Northern Jutland. The list also accounts for the investigators experience with clinical trials and what kind of clinical trials they work with.

“One entrance North” collaborates with research units from all the hospitals in Northern Jutland. “One entrance North” and EIR Business Park have initiated several projects. One of them is the campaign “Make a difference – become a subject”.

• Board of Health
• Ministry of Health
• The Pharmaceutical Industry (Lægemiddelindustriforeningen)
• Contract Research Organization (CRO)
