These partnerships allow HCRN to conduct leading investigator-initiated studies that bring together the best ideas in research and the best care in the clinical setting.

Our Key Opinion Leaders

Sponsor-Investigators

Hoosier Cancer Research Network is honored to collaborate with many thought leaders in clinical oncology research across the United States. 

Clinical Trial Working Groups

Fostering an Environment of Mentorship

Hoosier Cancer Research Network invites investigators from our member institutions to participate in Clinical Trial Working Groups. Through regular teleconferences and occasional in-person meetings, the group remains active throughout the lifetime of HCRN studies. Fostering an environment of mentorship, these groups are ideal for physicians at all levels in both academic and community settings. CTWGs provide investigators with opportunities to:

Evaluate concepts during the development and design of a protocol

Receive input on concepts from key opinion leaders

Co-author publications

Share best practices in clinical oncology

Meet with funders to discuss areas of interest and concept submission guidelines
