Mission
PACIFIC NORTHWEST RESEARCH INSTITUTE (PNRI), A NONPROFIT CORPORATION, IS AN INDEPENDENT, BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE CONDUCTING BASIC AND APPLIED RESEARCH AIMED AT UNDERSTANDING HOW HEALTH IS MAINTAINED IN THE FACE OF GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASE DEVELOPMENT. THE SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES HAVE APPLICABILITY IN A VARIETY OF DISEASES, INCLUDING DIABETES, CANCER, NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS, AMONG MANY OTHERS.
Program accomplishments
- EXPERIMENTING IN YEAST ALLOWS THE DUDLEY LAB TO MAKE DISCOVERIES THAT GO BEYOND THE LAB WITH THE POWER TO CHANGE HOW SCIENTISTS AROUND THE GLOBE APPROACH GENETIC RESEARCH. FROM PERFORMING LARGESCALE EXPERIMENTS TO DISCOVERING NEW ANTIFUNGAL TREATMENTS, THE DUDLEY LAB IS A WORLD LEADER IN USING YEAST TO ANSWER FUNDAMENTAL QUESTIONS ABOUT BIOLOGY. WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT APPLYING AND DEVELOPING NOW TECHNOLOGIES AND ABOUT TRANSLATING DISCOVERIES FROM OUR LAB INTO REALWORLD APPLICATIONS. THE DUDLEY LAB EXPERIMENTS IN YEAST BECAUSE YEAST CELLS FUNCTION IN MUCH THE SAME WAY AS HUMAN CELLS. HOWEVER, WITH YEAST, WE CAN PERFORM EXPERIMENTS MUCH FASTER, AND ON A GRANDER SCALE, THAN SCIENTISTS CAN WITH HUMAN CELLS.Expenses $1,763,218
- THE HAGOPIAN LAB RESEARCHES WAYS TO PREDICT AND PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OF TYPE 1 DIABETES, A DISEASE AFFECTING OVER ONE MILLION AMERICAN CHILDREN AND ADULTS. NOT EVERYONE WITH GENETIC RISK FOR TYPE 1 DIABETES DEVELOPS THE DISEASE. WHY NOT? SCIENTISTS IN THE HAGOPIAN LAB BELIEVE ANSWERS LIE IN THE ENVIRONMENT. THEY ARE ONE OF 6 LABS PARTICIPATING IN AN INTERNATIONAL STUDY FOLLOWING 8,000 CHILDREN WITH HIGH GENETIC RISK FOR TYPE 1 DIABETES. THE HAGOPIAN LAB ALSO DEVELOPS POPULATION BASED NEWBORN SCREENING METHODS TO PREDICT WHO IS AT RISK. THE ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO PREVENT THE DISEASE ENTIRELY.Expenses $1,689,533 · revenue $886,319
- THE CARVALHO LAB STUDIES HOW, WHEN, AND WHY HUMAN GENOMIC VARIANTS OCCUR AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF DISEASE AND DISABILITY.Expenses $1,345,160
- THE METZGER LAB IS MAKING DISCOVERIES ABOUT HOW CANCERS MUTATE AND EVOLVE BY STUDYING CONTAGIOUS CANCERS IN MARINE BIVALVES, AND THEY ARE LEARNING HOW SOME CLAMS HAVE EVOLVED THE ABILITY TO BLOCK THE CANCERS THAT INFECT THEM, WHICH MAY HELP US UNDERSTAND HOW OUR BODIES CAN RESIST CANCER.Expenses $1,241,252
