 WESTERN REGION

KAIMRC in the Western Region (WR) represents the cornerstone for medical research within this region of KSA. It operates in parallel with KAIMRC Central and Eastern Regions, sharing strategies and operational resources. Creativity and innovation are promoted between each other. KAIMRC – WR provides advanced infrastructure for research scientists and investigators as well as state-of-the-art technology and equipment. Access is not limited to the local area, but national and international researchers from other institutes and research centers are able to access the center, through multiple collaborative opportunities in order  to contribute to advancing medical knowledge.

The new five story building of KAIMRC-WR opened in September 2014 with the offices operating in the first, third, fourth and fifth floors. The building contains state-of-the-art laboratories: Vivarium, Animal Laboratory, Medical Imaging Laboratory and lecture rooms. This facility also includes DNA Banks, Stem Cell Labs and Immunology Labs with the highest international research standards.
