We have created a research center profile for every research center for which we had sufficient data. Some research centers do pay us to promote their research program with extra information about their center. They also have expanded profiles that are visually distinct from non-subscriber research centers and show up at the top of the search results.

ALL research centers that are conducting clinical trials relevant to your search are presented regardless of whether they are subscribers.

No. All ratings are based on publicly available data and reviews left by clinical trial patients.

We provide emails, phone numbers and addresses for all research centers if we have access to them. If there is no contact information you can contact us for help.

The more information a reviewer provides, the more impact their review will have. This helps us verify the authenticity of the reviewer and ensures high quality reviews for other patients.

We list every research center in the United States who has registered a clinical trial on ClinicalTrials.gov. If your research center is owned by a larger organization, try searching by the larger research center name. If you still don’t find your research center, use the “Don’t see your research center?” button. We will get back to you as soon as we can.

We use data from a variety of publicly available online resources including Clinicaltrials.gov and the Department of Homeland Security. Our rating algorithm is designed to objectively measure the quality, experience and infrastructure of research centers

The TrialScout Top 50 Excellence in Clinical Research Award was established in order to recognize elite clinical research facilities. Hospitals are chosen based on exceptional performance in quality, research experience, infrastructure, and overall patient experience. Scoring is based on data compiled from all active US clinical research institutions as well as other public data sets and ongoing direct patient feedback.
