Idaho Veterans Research and Education Foundation (IVREF) is:

a 501(c)(3) independent nonprofit corporation established in 2011 to facilitate the advancement of biomedical and health services research in Idaho by providing administrative and research support

one of approximately 80 Veterans Affairs-affiliated nonprofit corporations (NPCs) in the United States created under Congressional authority to allow for approved private and non-VA federal funding for VA research and education

located in Boise, Idaho, on the Veterans Affairs Medical Center campus.

Completed in 2012, our two-story, 18,000-square-foot Research building houses multiple state-of-the-art basic science research laboratories. We are working to create a well-equipped and broadly supported Biomedical Research Center of Excellence at the Boise VAMC that will serve as a nexus for such research in the state of Idaho.
