Welcome to Bradenton Research Center
Bradenton Research Center is a dedicated research center affiliated with Bradenton Neurology as well as other physicians in Bradenton. Our Principal Investigator, W. Alvin McElveen, MD, has over 18 years experience in clinical trials. Dr. McElveen made the decision to conduct clinical trials so that he could offer his patients hope for a better treatment for their illness than was currently available. We truly do offer “Tomorrow’s medicines Today”.

Since 1992 we have conducted more than 90 clinical research studies and have earned the confidence and trust of our patients by giving them the very best medical care and innovative new treatments right here in Bradenton. For the protection of our volunteers, we strictly abide by both FDA regulations and oversight as well as other protective state and federal laws concerning the conduct of human subject research.
