The Translational Research in Action Seminar objectives are:
1. to elucidate the path of scientific discovery to implementation in a clinical setting
2. to facilitate exchange of ideas for translational research collaborations at GMU
Invited speakers will come from the fields of basic research, clinical research or biomedical product development. The format will include a scientific core, an implementation case study (or proposed biomedical/behavioral relevance) and discussion.
