Our Facility

We have 3000 square feet of dedicated clinical research space.

Our research pharmacy has storage for refrigerated and room-temperature investigational IV or oral products. Several coordinators and a licensed pharmacist are available for both open label and randomized controlled studies.  For drugs that require mixing, the research pharmacist compounds the drug within the research center, minimizing the time between mixing and administration.

Lab services include:

• Room temperature centrifuge
• Refrigerated centrifuge
• A variety of cold storage options for samples
• We are equipped to handle, process, and ship human specimens.
• Cerebrospinal fluid sampling
• Skin biopsies

Electroencephalography services include:

• Recording and interpretation of routine EEG

Nutritionist evaluation and anthropometric measurements are performed by two licensed dieticians.

Our physical therapy center is staffed by two licensed physical therapists, and includes a gait and partially weighted ambulation lab.
