Clinical Translational Science Awards

A national consortium of medical research institutions, funded through Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSAs), is working together and shares a common vision to:

* Improve the way biomedical research is conducted across the country
* Reduce the time it takes for laboratory discoveries to become treatments for patients
* Engage communities in clinical research efforts
* Train the next generation of clinical and translational researchers

The CTSA initiative is led by the National Center for Research Resources at the National Institutes of Health.
