Leading Performance-Enhancing Drug Research Institute Anti-Doping Research (ADR) Establishes Nonprofit Status
Date:6/24/2008

LOS ANGELES, June 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Anti-Doping Research, Inc. (ADR), one of the world's leading scientific institutes battling the use of performance-enhancing drugs in sport, is pleased to announce that it has achieved legal status as a nonprofit entity.

"We've been up and running and fully-operational for a while now," says Dr. Catlin, a founder and Chief Executive Officer of the organization. "But now it's all official and we're thrilled, because others can now join us in our mission to help rid sport of performance-enhancing drugs."

ADR's new status as a public charity will allow its contributors to claim a tax deduction for their donations. ADR is also developing innovative programs for athletes, organizations and the general public to get involved in the battle against doping in sport and help make a difference.

Founded in 2005, ADR is considered one of the world's most renowned performance-enhancing drug research organizations. Its mission is to help rid sport of performance-enhancing drugs by, among other means, identifying new drugs being used in competition and developing the tests to detect them.

Catlin is widely considered one of the fathers of drug testing in sport. He previously founded the first anti-doping lab in the United States, the UCLA Olympic Analytical Laboratory, and served as its director for 25 years. He has overseen the drug testing of sports at every level, including Olympic, professional and collegiate, and he and his team of top researchers have been instrumental in pioneering identification techniques for many performance-enhancing drugs, including artificial testosterone, the blood booster darbepoetin, and the designer steroid THG or "The Clear."

Events such as the BALCO investigation solidified Catlin and his colleagues' realization that research and testing development needed to be bolstered and made permanent.
