OUR FACILITY
​
Quality, Adaptability, Advocacy, Collaboration and Patient Centricity
​
Staying true to its core values of quality data, and exceptional patient care, the GMRI team remains agile and competitive, expanding and growing based on the needs of its sponsors and its patients.
​
We strive to be leaders in the advancement of medicine with a strong dedication to the community that we serve by spreading awareness about clinical trials as a potential care option, and providing the best possible data to Sponsors.
GMRI is the only trial site within an hour and provides unique access to research-naive subjects. This benefits Sponsor's as well as our community by offering a look into the under-represented population of rural New England.
​
In fulfilling our mission we retain a steadfast commitment to science, our partners, and our community.
