The Center is administered through the School of Medicine, as a division in the Department of Medicine. Dr. Farquhar directed the Center from its inception through 1997. Dr. Fortmann was appointed Center Director in 1998 and Ms. Chris Scholberg is the Business Manager. The broad scope of the Center requires knowledge and skills from many different academic disciplines, and scientists and professionals from several Departments and Schools in the University are involved, as well as investigators in other institutions.

The Center is housed in the old Palo Alto Hospital on the Stanford University campus. This building is now the Hoover Pavilion of Stanford Hospital and Clinics and is located at Quarry and Palo Roads, near El Camino Real. In addition to faculty and staff offices and conference rooms, this building includes an Outpatient Clinical Research Facility, the Health Improvement Program, and the Health Promotion Resource Center. The Clinical Research Facility includes examination and procedure rooms, phlebotomy stations, shower and dressing facilities for clinic participants, treadmill and bicycle exercise stations, oxygen consumption analysis equipment, and a blood processing area.

SPRC operates additional clinical research sites. SPRC research projects are also conducted in the Stanford University Hospital General Clinical Research Center and at schools and community centers throughout the Bay Area.
