The Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) is a multi-disciplinary scientific community linking basic, clinical and translational investigators to collaborate on research across the translational research spectrum. CCTS provides an environment for translational research to flourish by providing research training, education, guidance and mentorship to new translational investigators as well as research support and services such as informatics, team science, data science support, and research navigation services.
