Alpha Clinics History

CIRM made an initial investment of $24 million to establish the Alpha Clinics Network in 2015. Starting with five centers, the program’s remarkable progress has flourished into an $80 million initiative, supporting over 250 clinical trials.

Its success in delivering clinical trials led to an expansion to nine sites across California in 2022.

Supporting the Future of Medicine
