Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) is dedicated to exploring the causes and cures of human disease. Key to this mission is innovation in clinical research. We are committed to staying at the forefront of our changing medical and scientific environments by combining expertise in laboratory investigation with breakthrough research. This bench-to-bedside approach allows for rapid development of scientific findings into medical treatment advancements with the potential to directly benefit people living with disease. BRI\'s state-of-the-art facilities have been designed to offer both patients and researchers the most comfortable and efficient environment in which to conduct clinical trials. Our Clinical Research Center (CRC) in the Virginia Mason Medical Center is committed specifically to providing patients with the best possible treatment and oversight of research procedures - from simple interviews to the most sensitive of care. It is staffed by experienced and caring personnel who are specifically trained in the oversight of clinical trials. The CRC also offers trial participants shorter wait times, a relaxing environment in which to receive care, video and reading libraries, and other amenities to make your visit a relaxing and rewarding one. With hundreds of studies underway, there are many opportunities for both healthy volunteers and people living with disease participate, and help contribute to a cure for diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, cancer, heart disease, and others.
