PACIFIC NORTHWEST RESEARCH INSTITUTE

PNRI is small, lean, and independent. We are home to a multidisciplinary team of world-class scientists who share an unconventional perspective on genetics... PNRI is focused on the child who remains healthy despite genetic and environmental risk. While traditional genetic research has yielded important discoveries around individual genes, diagnosis, and the treatment of disease by focusing mostly on the child who becomes ill, PNRI is turning the question around. We work to uncover how nature prevents disease in the first place... We are an independent, nonprofit research organization led by forward-thinking scientists. By asking different questions, we are able to find new solutions in the fight against diseases ranging from Alzheimer's to Type 1 diabetes.
