Sanford Research

Committed to Improving the Human Condition

At Sanford Research, we are changing the landscape of science and health care. Our growing team of more than 200 researchers is focused on identifying new therapies and treatments for some of the world’s leading health concerns. It’s our goal to find solutions that will cure illness, eradicate disease and improve the lives of people in our communities and around the world.

Sanford Research is founded in excellence. Our work is made possible by the generosity and vision of businessman and philanthropist, Denny Sanford, whose gift of $400 million to Sanford Health enables us to expand our research and care delivery with an unprecedented opportunity. The Sanford Project  is one of several initiatives founded by this transformational gift, with a commitment to find a cure for Type I diabetes through beta cell regeneration.

Most recently, a subsequent gift of $100 million by Mr. Sanford has paved the way to establish Edith Sanford Breast Cancer Research, which will pioneer the future of breast cancer research and care through personalized medicine.

We believe that through our passion for discovery and demonstrated commitment to success, we not only attract the brightest and most innovative researchers, but we also give them a place to thrive.
