Clinical Research
The Froedtert & MCW health network offers patients direct access to a wide range of clinical trials. Each of the trials has been approved by the Froedtert & MCW Institutional Review Board, or IRB. Involvement in a clinical trial is strictly voluntary and requires each participant to sign an informed consent form. To assure that useful data is derived from a clinical trial, strict eligibility requirements are in place.

Medical College of Wisconsin
At the core of the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) is academic medicine, which brings together scientists, clinicians, students and community members to solve challenges in health and society. Every study conducted and every patient seen leads to new learning and a continuous cycle of life-changing knowledge. MCW is proud of this legacy but even prouder of the hundreds of thousands of lives changed through research discoveries that advance medicine and provide patients with the most innovative options for treatment.
