REALISATIONS

+30 years of experience in clinical studies and research

For more than 30 years, our center has conducted a variety of studies in different therapeutic indications but especially specialized in disorders of the brain.

Through the expansion of our facilities, first in 2017 and then in 2021 with now 2 fully equipped sites on the one hand at Alken (Alkerstraat 28-30-30A-32Z) and on the other hand at Diepenbeek (Wetenschapspark 11-13), ARC currently has a very extensive clinical research facility, meeting the most stringent international requirements.

Including a day and overnight accommodation for 12 people which allows to perform intensive PK sampling as well as other demanding clinical evaluations such as poly-somnography (PSG), Anima Research Center can perform the most demanding Phase 0 to Phase IV studies .
