Abstract: The CTSA Initiative is administered by the Division of Clinical Research Resources (DCRR) within NCRR. The Initiative was designed to spur the transformation of the biomedical research enterprise in the United States so that new treatments can be developed more efficiently and delivered more quickly to patients. The Initiative enables institutions to create an integrated academic home for clinical and translational science that has the resources to train and advance multi- and interdisciplinary investigators and research teams. CTSAs engage basic, translational, and clinical investigators, community clinicians, clinical practices, networks, professional societies, and industry to develop new professional interactions, programs, and research projects. The CTSA Initiative is designed to fundamentally change the organization and operating paradigm of research in major academic medical centers by providing infrastructure resources to support clinical and translational science activities and training for the next generation of scientists.
