Open Day CHDR

What does CHDR actually do?

The Centre for Human Drug Research (CHDR) in Leiden is an independent foundation that tests new medicines at an early stage. This is done with the help of healthy volunteers and patients, in a safe and controlled environment.

A behind-the-scenes look – ongoing

During the Open Day on Saturday, July 5, everyone is welcome to take a look inside CHDR, in the department where these studies take place. You’ll discover how researchers use innovative techniques to measure the effects and safety of medicines – and how this contributes to better treatments for the future.
