The Translational Science pillar aims to connect researchers from different disciplines and backgrounds in order to facilitate the translation of their findings from bench-to-bedside.

TS wants to facilitate a fast turnover of basic science findings into new therapies, medical procedures and/or diagnostics. Given the strong emphasis among governing bodies and grant agencies to promote societal impact and short term valorization of fundamental research, the Translational Science pillar aims to promote such translational efforts within ABC.

We want to identify and align the specific research paradigms and protocols available within the many strong labs affiliated with ABC, working on both basic science and clinical applications, and to help them make a transition from pre-clinical to more clinical/diagnostic/therapeutic research approaches. Our main objective is to provide a platform for these researchers to network and help set up new collaborations, thereby making their translational ambitions and efforts more efficient and efficacious.
