The Investigational Drug Service (IDS) of the Morehouse School of Medicine is responsible for the consistent and centralized management of pharmaceutical/investigational drug protocols used in human subject research, at all sites under the Clinical Research Center (CRC). The Investigational Drug Service serves as the management unit for the storage, dispensing and disposal of study medication for many clinical trials. It ensures standardization of procedures within each protocol, and further protects human subjects who participate in research protocols, through improved drug safety and accountability measures.
