Faster, Stronger, and Bigger Than Ever Before
When the sun rises over the foothills just east of Salt Lake City, a new 220,000-square-foot, four-story building is now silhouetted against the landscape. The building is the epicenter of ARUP Laboratories’ growing operations and has increased the company’s laboratory space by 45%.
ARUP Bids Farewell to CEO Sherrie L. Perkins, Renowned Hematopathologist and Trailblazing Leader
“In academic medicine, Sherrie is what we call a ‘triple threat’ because she is an outstanding clinician, researcher, and educator,” said Carl Kjeldsberg, MD, who recruited Perkins to ARUP as a hematopathology fellow in 1990.
COVID-19 Lessons Make ARUP More Nimble

But you need to understand that at ARUP, finance is important, but it isn’t king. We’re all about getting patients the care they need through lab testing. Finance exists to support that.’”

Most people can recall a few defining moments in their careers, milestones or accomplishments that serve always to remind them, “This is what I do. This is who I am.”
Clinic Defines Role of Population Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic
