Translational research describes the effort to move findings from the lab bench to practice at the bedside and in the community. Research that is relevant to human health has an increasing advantage when reviewers evaluate the significance and impact of a research proposal. This session will describe how some faculty embarked on research programs that are translational. The presentation will focus on how to develop a translational research project, how to convince a reviewer that your research is translational, and where to find the resources for the necessary pilot studies to acquire critical preliminary data.
The TraCS Pilot Program will be offering the following seminars during the 2011-2012 academic year. All will be offered in Brinkhous-Bullitt Conference Room 219 and hosted by a Research Navigator. If you plan to attend, please RSVP to Paul Kerr at paulkerr@med.unc.edu.
