BRI's Culture

Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) values a strong culture of collaboration, both among our diverse staff and with research partners near and far. This synergistic environment extends beyond the lab or office, as the institute provides opportunities to get to know colleagues and volunteer/participate in community events.

Seattle Life Sciences Community

BRI is a core part of the dynamic life sciences community in Seattle. Many BRI researchers have clinical affiliations with Virginia Mason, affiliate appointments with the University of Washington and train University of Washington Immunology PhD students. 

Working in Downtown Seattle

BRI's location on the Virginia Mason Hospital campus is adjacent to downtown Seattle, the thriving cultural, financial and business hub of the region. This highly walkable area is also close to mass transit routes that access the greater Puget Sound area.

Living in the Pacific Northwest

Being at BRI means living in the heart of the stunning Pacific Northwest - an ideal place for those who love exploring. It means being surrounded by the vibrancy and sophistication of one of the most livable cities in the country, near some of the most breathtaking natural beauty anyone can find. When seeking the perfect urban or outdoor pursuit, there are endless possibilities.
