Benaroya Research Institute At Virginia Mason

Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) is one of the few research institutes in the world devoted to predicting, preventing, reversing and curing diseases of the immune system, ranging from autoimmune disease to allergies and cancer. Our culture of collaboration and innovation means that breakthroughs in one disease can lead to progress against others. Our research seeks to understand what causes immune systems to fall out of balance, how they progress from health to disease and how and when we can intervene to move them back to health. Mission: Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) is one of the few research institutes in the world dedicated to discovering causes and cures to eliminate autoimmune and immune system diseases. At BRI, our scientists aren’t focused on eliminating one or two autoimmune diseases—we’re taking on all 80.
