Specialized Centers of Research
Updated November 13, 2008
Specialized Centers of Research (SCORs) increase the transfer of basic research findings into clinical practice by conducting laboratory and clinical studies under one roof. These centers focus on a single disease: currently, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and scleroderma. SCORs are considered national resources associated with one or more major medical centers.
