ECRIN's support for multinational clinical study proposals
In this episode, Daniel Hammes from the DKF Basel sits down with Christina Huf, Switzerland’s European Correspondent (EuCo) for ECRIN, to explore how Swiss researchers can successfully run multinational clinical trials.
Together, they dive into the role and structure of ECRIN, a European, non‑profit research infrastructure connecting 13 member countries and more than 130 Clinical Trial Units across Europe. Christina explains the typical challenges Swiss investigators face—such as fragmented regulatory requirements, differing ethics procedures, language barriers, and complex international contracting.
The episode explains how ECRIN strengthens Horizon Europe proposals through realistic country selection, solid budgeting, and well‑developed clinical trial work packages. It also outlines the role of the Swiss EuCo, which advises early in proposal development and supports operational coordination throughout a study’s lifecycle. Researchers learn when to reach out, what costs to expect, and how ECRIN services fit into Horizon Europe budget planning. The podcast further shows how the SCTO and Swiss CTUs collaborate with ECRIN to ensure high‑quality study conduct in Switzerland.
