Wellness Living Laboratory (WELL)

The mission of the Wellness Living Laboratory (WELL) is to build the scientific evidence base about wellbeing by conducting observational, intervention and biomarker research studies to inform best practices for building and sustaining wellbeing among all segments of populations, positively impacting individuals and communities.

Stanford University has full control over and decision-making authority with respect to the WELL project and its direction, including, without limitation, the design and protocol of the wellness studies, and the publication of results.

WELL’s initial funding is through an unrestricted gift from the Nutrilite Health Institute Fund provided by Amway to Stanford University.
