The Methodist Hospital Research Institute is a cornerstone of The Methodist Hospital’s strategic vision for its future as a top-ranked academic medical center.  The Methodist Hospital Research Institute will conduct groundbreaking translational and clinical research to provide the best possible care for our patients.  Our goal is to make the latest laboratory findings available to patients in the form of new treatments and clinical trials as rapidly as possible.  The Institute is committed to moving the latest discoveries in the laboratory to the bedside in order to provide a new standard of care for our patients and those in other parts of the country.

The Foundation was established to ensure The Methodist Hospital has the support needed to achieve its vision for excellence in research, education and patient care.
