Profound Research

Profound Research, founded in 2023, is a healthcare company that embeds clinical research directly into community physician practices. Its model aims to make trials more accessible to a broader patient population by handling all operational logistics. This allows participating physicians to maintain their focus on patient care rather than trial administration. The company operates from its base in Nashville, Tennessee.

The firm's core service is its concierge research model. This includes managing regulatory compliance, patient recruitment, and other trial logistics for physician partners. The technical domains central to its operations are clinical research logistics, regulatory compliance, and patient recruitment, spanning therapeutic areas such as neurology and cardiology.

Profound Research has built a network comprising over 1,000 providers across 22 sites. The company has facilitated more than 130 clinical trials and has access to a patient network database of over 1.25 million individuals. Its stated culture emphasizes compassion, urgency, solution orientation, and a commitment to preserving the patient-physician relationship.
