HDCT brings together more than 70 years of clinical trials and health data expertise to support researchers and enhance research outcomes. Our team comprises multi-disciplinary specialists ready to help researchers refine proposals, collaborate, upscale, budget, design and deliver unique clinical trials and health data science.
We can help you leverage existing strengths and tap into modern approaches to effectively and efficiently develop and implement clinical research into evidence, and support its delivery and translation into improved health services and outcomes for the community.
Our research specialists can assist at all stages of the research timeline.
Our services include refining proposals, research design, execution, collaboration, upscaling, and budgeting. We are experts in the delivery of unique clinical trials and health data science, ranging from registries and translational work to Phase I - IV randomised controlled trials across a broad range of therapeutic areas.
We provide the gamut of clinical trials and registry support services in a way that allows co-design and uptake to help you with all relevant aspects of your research, whether self-driven, collaborative and external investigator grants, local, national & international trials or registries, or industry-funded studies.

I was impressed by the rapid response, professionalism and friendly advice provided by the Health Data and Clinical Trials team – they really rolled up their sleeves entering data and guiding me through what can be a complex system. We got there in the end with ethics approval, Site Specific Approval and ANZ Clinical trials registration. I couldn’t have done it without them!
The Health Data and Clinical Trials team is doing an exceptional job in supporting Researchers at Flinders to take on big data projects. [They] worked closely with me to develop the datasets to meet the strict specifications ... as part of a larger nation-wide Collaborative project. The team members are approachable, and their professionalism, led by Erin, is outstanding.
HDCT provided invaluable advice on study design and a grant application for a clinical trial. While I have a reasonable knowledge about trial design, I was not confident about all aspects and wasn't aware of the latest techniques. The advice from the HDCT helped me to design a rigorous trial and assisted in budget preparation.
HDCT provided an excellent service to help us set up our MRFF RCT. They are knowledgeable, efficient and helpful. They are an amazing resource for clinical investigators on the Flinders campus.
Just want to drop a note to say what a fantastic [clinical trials education] session it was few days ago – it was crisp, clear, concise, and informative!
