Exhibit & Sponsor
The Public Responsibility in Medicine and Research (PRIM&R) Annual Conference is the nation’s leading convening focused on research ethics. For organizations seeking to reach institutions responsible for human subjects research, animal care and use, and research governance, PRIM&R offers direct access to the professionals who shape policy, and guide implementation.
As the premier gathering in this field, participants span academic medical centers, universities, health systems, independent research organizations, government agencies, and industry—creating a uniquely cross-sector environment for connection and learning.
Intentionally designed to organize attendees by area of practice, the PRIM&R annual conference connects the right audiences at the right time. Distinct but overlapping educational tracks bring together professionals working in similar oversight and compliance roles, while shared dining, poster sessions, networking breaks, and government office hours keep the exhibit hall central to the attendee experience. This approach supports repeat visits, focused conversations, and relationship-building with clearly defined professional communities. Learn more about the agenda.
Exhibiting at PRIM&R positions your organization alongside a trusted nonprofit that sets standards and advances ethical, high-quality research year-round. It signals a commitment not only to innovative solutions, but to the integrity and accountability of the research enterprise itself.
Join us at The Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th St, Denver, and engage directly with the research oversight and compliance leaders shaping policy, practice, and decision-making across the research enterprise.
