Medical research laboratories provide a regulated environment for the testing of the safety and efficacy of a variety of medical treatments and diagnostic devices, including medications, implants, and physician test kits. These facilities form the backbone of today's effective medical treatments, from cholesterol-lowering medications to pacemakers for the heart. In the U.S., these types of labs are overseen by the FDA.

Medical research can happen in the private, government, and academic sectors. Private medical research labs are most often referred to as "central laboratories," which are contracted by pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers. Though mentioned occasionally in its regulation and guidance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration doesn't seem to provide a definition of the term "central laboratory." However, it gets used by some in the context of an analytical laboratory that provides analyses of biological specimens associated with clinical and bioequivalence studies (including multi-site studies, prompting the idea of a "central" lab handling sample analysis) performed at medical institutions.<ref name="MAGIDefinition04" /><ref name="KarelinSelecting13">{{cite web |url=https://www.contractpharma.com/issues/2013-05/view_features/selecting-a-central-laboratory/ |title=Selecting a Central Laboratory |author=Karelin, A.; Belotserkovskiy, M.; Khokhlova, V.; Kumar, A. |work=Contract Pharma |publisher=Rodman Media, Inc |date=06 May 2013 |accessdate=18 November 2021}}</ref> These central labs may also be contracted out to provide "courier services for delivering lab kits and biosamples from/to medical institutions where diagnostics and treatment of patients is performed."<ref name="KarelinSelecting13" /> Analytical testing and other services at a central or contract lab include anatomic pathology, digital pathology, immunology, microbiology, flow cytometry, biomarker testing, pharmacokinetic testing, genomic testing, and specimen and biorepository management.<ref name="CovanceClinical">{{cite web |url=https://drugdevelopment.labcorp.com/services/clinical-testing/central-laboratory-services/core-laboratory-testing-services.html |title=Global Network and Core Services |publisher=Labcorp Drug Development |accessdate=18 November 2021}}</ref><ref name="ACMCentral">{{cite web |url=https://www.acmgloballab.com/central-lab-services |title=Central Lab Services |publisher=ACM Global Laboratories |accessdate=18 November 2021}}</ref>
