    About

    The Certificate in Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) provides educational enrichment and an increased awareness of expanding opportunities in translational science, a discipline focused on moving biomedical discovery into application in the health care arena.

    Translational science requires team-based interdisciplinary approaches to advance research-generated discoveries into clinical trials and facilitate adoption of best practices in a clinical and community setting.

    Translational science investigators understand the principles involved in foundational research and how such studies relate to epidemiology, behavioral medicine, and patient-oriented research.

    Graduate training programs in the translational sciences are available in areas such as medicine, public health, nursing, dentistry, pharmacy, and other allied health professions, including biostatistics, behavioral medicine, epidemiology, and clinical pharmacology.
