Since 2009, the broad range of anti-doping research activities previously undertaken by USADA has been assumed by the Partnership for Clean Competition.

The Partnership for Clean Competition (PCC) was founded in 2008 as a non-profit corporation by the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee, the National Football League, Major League Baseball, and the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. In addition to the founding partners, the National Hockey League, the PGA TOUR, Comprehensive Drug Testing, and Drug Free Sport International are contributors.
By combining the resources and expertise of America’s leading sports entities, the PCC supports non-partisan and independent scientific research through targeted grants to various universities and other world-class research institutions. The PCC encourages independent research focusing on the development of more effective tests for performance-enhancing substances, across all levels of athletic participation and competition, from the casual youth sports participant to the elite amateur and professional athlete.
