Translational science, also known as bench-to-bedside research, aims to translate biomedical discoveries into useful applications and treatments, such as a drug, device, diagnostic or behavioral intervention, that impact health and health outcomes. <\/p>\n
At UC San Francisco, my colleagues and I at the UCSF Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) are collaborating and innovating in ways that are transforming health care as we know it. <\/p>\n
We're also looking ahead at the trends and influences that are reshaping and more importantly, accelerating translational science, all with a focus on improving health. We partnered with Carry The One Radio to produce podcasts on each of the trends. Learn more about them below, or listen to the full playlist here. <\/p>\n
What does it look like when academic medical institutions reimagine industry-academic partnerships? <\/p>\n
June Lee, MD, FACCP, director of CTSI Early Translational Research, and her colleague, Danielle Schlosser, PhD, an assistant professor in the UCSF School of Medicine, explain how the UCSF-CTSI Catalyst Awards program is expanding the role that industry experts play in accelerating research. In particular, that involves customized consultations to help researchers navigate the lengthy and complex process of translating big ideas and exciting discoveries into therapeutics, diagnostics, devices and digital health solutions that improve health. <\/p>\n
Multidisciplinary collaboration, or team science, may seem like an obvious way to conduct research. <\/p>\n
Dan Lowenstein, MD, professor of Neurology in the UCSF School of Medicine, explains that the concept of team science is actually revolutionary. <\/p>\n
As a leader in the Epilepsy Phenome\/Genome Project a collaboration that includes 27 clinical centers and more than 100 scientists and clinicians worldwide Lowenstein and his team are part of that revolution by rethinking how research happens, and creating models that encourage and support change. <\/p>\n
