About the Program

NC TraCS is seeking proposals that focus on understanding a scientific or operational principle underlying a step of the translational research process with the goal of developing generalizable principles to accelerate translation.

The Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) Pilot Program supports investigation focused on understanding the scientific and operational principles underlying each step of the translational process, so that advances can be applied to research on any target or disease.

Projects are intended to:

1. explore possible innovative new leads or new directions for established investigators;
2. stimulate investigators from other areas to lend their expertise in research in CTS; and
3. provide initial support to establish proof of concept.

Projects must be feasible within the proposed timeframe, have high methodological and scientific quality, and answer important scientific questions.

Applications due: Nov 14, 2023
