Background

The United States makes a substantial annual investment in biomedical research with the hope that these funds will ultimately improve our nation’s health. However, due to the increasing complexity, cost and difficulties of human research, translating basic advances into improved clinical care has become increasingly problematic. Recognizing both the growing nature of this problem and the need to celebrate our nation’s accomplishments that involve both innovation and impact upon human disease, the Clinical Research Forum conducts a national competition to determine ten outstanding Clinical Research Accomplishments in the United States annually. These major research advances represent a portion of the annual return on the nation’s investment in the health and future welfare of its citizens.
