Advancing Medical Innovation, Championing Research.

The Association for Clinical and Translational Science, the Clinical Research Forum, and other stakeholders work together through the Coalition for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) to advocate with a unified voice on behalf of the clinical and translational research community. CCTS is a nationwide, grassroots network of dedicated individuals who seek to educate Congress and the administration about the value and importance of clinical and translational research, and research training and career development activities. Our goals are to ensure that the full spectrum of medical research is adequately funded, the next generation of researchers is well-prepared, and the regulatory and public policy environment facilitates ongoing innovation and advancement of the field of clinical and translational science.
