6 Translational Medicine T1 – “the transfer of new understandings of disease mechanisms gained in the laboratory into the development of new methods for diagnosis, therapy, and prevention and their first testing in humans.” T2 – “the translation of results from clinical studies into everyday clinical practice and health decision making.” IOM Clinical Research Roundtable

7 Translational Research Activities T1 activities included: 1) the translation of basic discovery into mechanistic studies in cell lines or animals, 2) the translation of mechanistic studies into initial human testing, and 3) the translation of initial human testing into proof of efficacy. The T2 activities included 1) the translation of proof of efficacy into proof of effectiveness in a usual care setting, and 2) research aimed at enhancing the adoption of best practices in the community

8 Conclusions 69% responded they are translational researchers (9% other survey but different definition) PhD and fellows report less translational activity Barriers to translational research are as expected but substantial

I don’t have the resources (funding, space, equipment, technology) for making my research more translational. I have not yet identified an appropriate translational research question to pursue. I am not sure what the next translational step would be for my research. I haven’t identified or secured the colleagues or collaborators I need to make my work more translational. I don’t have the guidance or mentorship I need to make my research more translational. I don’t have the training or expertise I need to make my work more translational. I have methodological obstacles to making my research more translational. It is premature for me to consider translational research.

12 Impetus for the CTSA Program  Implementing biomedical discoveries made in the last 10 years demands an evolution of clinical science.  New prevention strategies and treatments must be developed, tested, and brought into medical practice more rapidly.  CTSA awards will lower barriers between disciplines, and encourage creative, innovative approaches to solve complex medical problems.  These clinical and translational science awards will catalyze change -- breaking silos, breaking barriers, and breaking conventions.

13 Johns Hopkins and Translational Medicine Need to support researchers at all career levels Progress in translational medicine requires development of teams of researchers that appreciate all phases Clinical and translational researchers will continue to develop more technical and specialized approaches. Handoffs require active coordination (project coordinators). Do to increasing regulations, researchers will need to rely more on systematized solutions at institutional or national level Academic organizations need to partner better with other organizations to increase efficiency (industry, payers, patient groups) Need to balance resources/support for early and late translation Academic centers need better management structure to systematically monitor research process and barriers
