Message from the President

Dear Colleague,

Welcome to the MECRA website, the first network of clinical research professionals within the region.

"The Middle-East Clinical Research Association, is the first organization of its kind in the Middle East, developed to promote clinical research knowledge in the region.

"As an Association dedicated to inform and advance its members, MECRA provides status and visibility for individuals concerned with the progress, know-how and quality of clinical research in the MENA institutions ( Health Authorities, MOH, Hospitals...), medical societies, pharmaceutical companies and Biotech industries. "

MECRA activities can be summarised in one sentence: training, exchange and development of clinical research know-how and regulations within the MENA region.

We are open to any new suggestions that can help us evolve as an association but also as a destination for clinical trials, and develop our educational services. I invite all clinical research professionals who are interested in evolving in this field in joining the MECRA and becoming active members in our dynamic association

We look forwards having you on board, whether to learn, exchange, update or to spread your knowledge, please do not hesitate to contact us.

With kind regards,

Dr Nadia Cheaib, PharmD, PhDc, MSC, DVP France

President and Founder of MECRA
