About Partnership for Clean Competition Research Collaborative

The Partnership for Clean Competition Research Collaborative centers its grantmaking on anti-doping research that protects sport integrity and public health. In 2023, its largest recent grant went to the University of Washington for research, signaling a preference for university-based scientific work in methods and testing. The next largest award supported Clemson University, another research institution, reinforcing a pattern of funding investigators rather than service providers or individuals. Its recent portfolio shows a technical research agenda rather than broad charitable giving. Grants have supported analytical chemistry, biomarker discovery, pharmacokinetics, alternative specimen testing, gene-doping detection, AI and machine learning for testing optimization, athlete biological passport research, and education and deterrence research. The foundation also backed Sports Medicine Research and Testing Lab, which fits its emphasis on laboratories and applied testing environments. Across the recent awards listed, recipients are U.S.-based scientific institutions and research organizations, with funding aimed at methods that detect or deter prohibited substances and improve anti-doping practice. As a public charity, it operates through institutional research grants and fellowship-style support tied to clean-sport science.

What Partnership for Clean Competition Research Collaborative Funds

A core theme is laboratory and analytical method development. The Partnership for Clean Competition Research Collaborative awarded $126,665 to Texas Tech University for research, fitting its focus on chromatography-mass spectrometry, analytical chemistry, and detection of prohibited substances. Another strand is applied testing innovation. It gave $105,171 to Activated Research Company LLC for research, which aligns with support for testing technology development and cost-effective anti-doping methods. The foundation also funded XCell Assay LLC with $39,141 for research, indicating interest in biomedical approaches that can strengthen detection or deterrence work. Sports-medicine and testing infrastructure are also present in the grant list. Sports Medicine Research and Testing Lab received $89,393 for research, a match for specimen testing, athlete monitoring, and laboratory-based anti-doping science. Taken together, the grants show support for both academic investigators and specialized research organizations.
