Innovative Therapies Centers of Excellence Act of 2025

# Innovative Therapies Centers of Excellence Act of 2025 (HR 2623) **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would establish federal "Centers of Excellence" dedicated to researching and developing innovative medical therapies. While specific details aren't provided in the available information, bills with this framework typically aim to create specialized research hubs that focus on cutting-edge treatments—potentially including areas like regenerative medicine, psychedelic-assisted therapy, or other emerging medical approaches. These centers would likely receive federal funding and coordination to advance promising treatments from research into practical clinical use. **Who It Affects** The bill would primarily affect medical researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and patients who might benefit from faster development of new therapies. It could also impact the National Institutes of Health and other federal agencies responsible for overseeing and funding the centers.

Hospitals and medical institutions might partner with or benefit from these centers of excellence. **Current Status** As of now, HR 2623 is in committee, meaning it has been introduced but hasn't yet advanced to a full House vote. The bill was sponsored by Representative J. Luis Correa (D-CA). For more detailed information about specific provisions, you can check Congress.gov or the bill's official text.
