Research work undertaken through McLaren Health Care subsidiary hospitals typically falls into one of four categories: resident research, faculty research, nurse research or clinical trial research. Over the past decade, McLaren Health Care has carefully and conscientiously developed one of the largest multidisciplinary research programs in the state. We are working with many of the leading names in the international medical/pharmaceutical and general health care industries, as well as universities, foundations, agencies, and others on important, life-enhancing work. This site was created to help Investigators and our patients learn about human subject research projects that are being conducted under HRPP review.
