What Is Clinical Research?

Clinical research is the process through which medications are evaluated and approved for use in the treatment of various medical conditions. All medications must pass through prolonged, rigorous testing prior to their approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for prescription use in the U.S. In order to obtain such approval, pharmaceutical companies select physicians to recruit patients that have specific diagnoses and are willing to participate in testing of the new medication.

Hence, clinical pharmacology research offers patients the opportunity to experience the effects of new drugs prior to their release to the general public. We have two research centers run by senior physicians and co-owners, Dr. Jonathan Weiss and Dr. Alia Brown.

ABC Biomedical Clinical Research

ABC Biomedical Clinical Research Centerย is located in Atlanta, Georgia. ABC has over 20 years of clinical research experience in the areas of dermatology, women's health, and general medicine. Dr. Alia Brown conducts ongoing medical and cosmetic research studies with a specialty in skin of color. One of the few skin of color primary investigators. Learn more about Dr. Brown and her team's researchย here.

Gwinnett Clinical Research Center

Gwinnett Clinical Research Centerย was founded in 1981 and has participated in over 225 clinical trials. Some of the major advancements in dermatologic therapy have resulted from this process and helped many patients prior to availability to the general public. The Research Center, located in our Snellville office, is owned and operated by Dr. Jonathan S. Weiss. They are assisted by two Research Coordinators.

3 Doctors
