Why Choose City of Hope
The Judy & Bernard Briskin Center for Clinical Research is built upon the idea that an atmosphere of kindness and compassion can be just as important as the treatment and care we deliver.
The center, made possible by a generous gift from Judy and Bernard Briskin and the Briskin Family Foundation, unifies our clinical research and trials programs in a newly renovated, modern facility on our main campus in Duarte, California.
