Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research (CPR) was established in 2007 at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, to promote basic and applied discovery research on human proteins of medical relevance.

The establishment of the centre was made possible by a generous donation of 600 million DKK (~113 MUSD) from the Novo Nordisk Foundation as well as through significant contributions from the University of Copenhagen for the renovation of the centre facilities.

The Novo Nordisk Foundation donated 180 million DKK to CPR in 2015, and in 2019 an additional 700 million DKK to fund CPR 2.0 in the next 5-year period. 

When the current centre grant is completed by the end of 2024, the funding of the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research will not be renewed. The centre is expected to receive a two-year phase-out grant until the end of 2026.
