The Jaeb Center for Health Research was established in 1993 as a freestanding, nonprofit coordinating center for multi-center clinical trials and epidemiologic research.
The Center currently coordinates three NIH-funded multi-center clinical research networks, two other NIH-funded multi-center studies, and one privately funded multi-center study. The Center also houses the NIH-funded Web-based Methods Resource Center For Eye Disease Trials.
