Alliance Clinical RESEARCH PROFESSIONAL Research Integrity Service Excellence Award (ALLIANCE CRP RISE Award)

The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology recognizes that clinical research professional (CRP) staff at Alliance participating sites are integral to the success of our mission to provide clinical trial participants with the best service possible. As such, Alliance is introducing the Research Integrity Service Excellence (RISE) Award for CRPs in recognition of outstanding service. Alliance aims to celebrate site CRPs who exemplify excellence through quality, advocacy, professional development and leadership with compassion, integrity, respect, safety, and teamwork. Alliance is seeking nominations of Alliance member CRPs demonstrating these qualities.

Awardees receive travel funding to attend an upcoming Alliance Group meeting, are presented with the Alliance CRP RISE award during the plenary session, and the opportunity to share their methods for success during the Clinical Research Professional Education Session or an article in the Alliance newsletter.

The recipient of the 2024 Alliance CRP RISE Award is Denise M. Theiler, MSN, RN, CHPN, OCN, Lead Clinical Research Nurse in the Office of Research Administration at Hackensack Meridian Health Research Institute. Presentation title: "A Well Coordinated Journey: Applying Excellence in Clinical Research."
