NC TraCS releases impact report showcasing advances in translational science

cover page for Impact Report

NC TraCS has released its first annual impact report after securing a seven-year $70 million Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) from the National Institutes of Health in April 2023. The report features TraCS' recent contributions to the health of North Carolinians—showcasing advancements made possible by our researchers, staff, and robust institute infrastructure.

Our current focus in this new grant is to accelerate progress in the science of translation. By gaining insights that can be applied across multiple different disease states, we aim to increase our impact and dismantle traditional barriers to cross-disciplinary collaboration.

Read about our successes and impacts on translational science at every stage— and learn about our early progress with our new Clinical and Translational Science Research program, demonstrating the diverse expertise being applied to roadblocks to scientific progress and highlighting their potential for translating research into patient care.

We believe that while changing the practice of medicine is a daunting challenge, truly impactful science will improve patient outcomes.

Learn more about our plans for this current iteration of NC TraCS in our 2023-2024 Impact Report.
