Project Case Study:

While Translational Research focuses on the process of translating discoveries to practical application, Translational Science offers a broader framework and innovative methods to improve the translation of knowledge into real-world solutions. This seminar will discuss the origin of the confusion between these two terms, a framework to better understand how the collaboration between Translational Research and Translational Science can drive innovation, and the impact on the translational workforce.
