The medical profession has had specific uses for CRC facilities, including awarding grants to support various types of research. For example, the U.S. National Institutes of Health had, for years, issued GCRC grants, but later changed to awarding a Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA). Many hospitals or clinics have included a wing, ward, or other area titled as "Clinical Research Center" (with capitalized words). Some examples of CRC facilities are: : * Harvard-Thorndike General Clinical Research Center in Massachusetts. : * Mallinckrodt General Clinical Research Center in Massachusetts. : * Mark O. Hatfield Clinical Research Center in Maryland. : * UCLA General Clinical Research Center in California.〔"UCLA General Clinical Research Center", UCLA.edu, June 2010, webpage: (GCRC-UCLA-edu ).〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「clinical research center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
