Legacy Research Institute

World-class facility

LRI is a 67,000 sq-ft state-of-the art research facility where a wide range of research including preclinical, basic, clinical and clinical trials, medical outcomes, and surgical advances and training are conducted. Located on the Holladay Park campus in northeast Portland, LRI neighbors the Legacy Central Laboratories and the Unity Center for Behavioral Health.

Collaboration

A culture of collaboration

At the core of LRI’s programs is a culture that embraces innovation and collaboration. Transdisciplinary research is supported and encouraged.  Researchers can develop research ideas and collaborate on projects with researchers, clinicians, and other scientists both within Legacy Health and beyond. 

Meet our scientists

A nimble & innovative environment

LRI researchers have the availability of internal foundation support for pilot, developmental, and more exploratory projects that may provide preliminary data to be used for larger federal grant submissions. This allows research programs to remain rather nimble and allows researchers to pursue ideas that are more innovative. Overall, LRI provides a resource-rich environment that supports translational research that has direct application to improving patient care.
