Welcome to the University of Vermont Center for Clinical and Translational Science! We are excited to have you learn more about this innovative multidisciplinary program.
Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) is the body of knowledge that spans basic biology, clinical medicine and health policy. Clinical and Translational Scientists use this knowledge to develop new approaches and systems to improve human health. Studies in CTS help us translate knowledge from the cellular and molecular level into interventions for individuals and populations.
Provide a seamless opportunity for young professionals to be trained in clinical and translational research and to have opportunities to be supported in a fellowship to allow them to actually perform such research in conjunction with a mentor. The eventual goal is for them to write successful grants, become independently funded and form the next generation of well-trained clinical and translational researchers. To that end, the Center for Clinical and Translational Research plans to offer a Certificate, a Master of Science and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Clinical and Translational Science. The common curriculum for these programs will be applicable to all kinds of early and late translational as well as clinical research.
Associate Dean for Patient Oriented Research Richard Galbraith, M.D., Ph.D., provided an update July 2007 on the Clinical and Translational Science Award initiative, and outlined its importance to the University, the academic medical center and the State. The accompanying slides are included as a PDF for your reference.
