Founded in 2025, ION Research was created to address a critical need: high-quality sourcing of Research Use Only (RUO) peptides for the scientific research community. RUO peptides are used exclusively by scientists for in vitro and laboratory research, playing a vital role in advancing scientific discovery. The company’s mission is personal — one of ION Research’s founders was inspired to launch the company after navigating his own health challenges, which underscored the importance of advancing medical research into a wide range of diseases.
Each month, ION Research commits to supporting one organization at the forefront of medical research with a $25,000 donation. Cure Alzheimer’s Fund was selected as a recipient by ION Research’s clients and researchers, who recognize the urgent need for progress in Alzheimer’s research.
