Biomedical clinical research requires an organized, monitored and quality-assured program that encourages interaction among faculty members, students, patients, funding agencies and the pharmaceutical research industry. As a result the West Indies Ministry of Health and UWI are collaborating to ensure that GLP, GCLP and ISO accreditation standards are met and sustained. They will be looking at data management systems along with the country's strategic plan for health information technology and a digital records system.
