DaVita Clinical Research, a provider of clinical research services focused on kidney research and a variety of other specialty therapeutic populations, announced an agreement to enter the St. Anthony Hospital campus in Lakewood, Colo. The 80-bed facility will be operational in early 2012 and is expected to create more than 50 specialized research jobs.
“We are excited about our partnership with a hospital that has such a strong reputation with healthcare professionals and patients throughout Colorado,” said Kent Thiry, DaVita Chairman and CEO.
