From bench to bedside, the CCTS is on a mission to improve health and health equity in communities across the deep south. By working together, we can accelerate the translation of fundamental and clinical research into improvements for human health and healthcare delivery. Through the CCTS Pilot Program, we seek to ameliorate health conditions that disproportionately affect our region as represented by the CCTS Partner Network and to develop the future translational research workforce by fostering collaboration, team science and innovative discovery.Our program invites proposals seeking to overcome barrier(s) in the conduct of research as to minimize or eliminate these issue(s) in subsequent work focused on amerliorating health condition(s) that disproportionately affect our region. Research plans may lie at any point along the translational science spectrum.
