The mission of the USF Clinical and Translational Institute (CTSI) is to facilitate and accelerate innovative clinical and translational research with the goal of improving health outcomes and making life better for our community.  The CTSI strives to be an efficient, coordinated resource that provides educational, technical and administrative suport, and that strengthens the connection between scholars, clinical and translational investigators, industry and the community.


 

 

In 2006, the NIH launched the CTSA program which NCRR is leading on behalf of the NIH Road map for medical research. This program is to assist institutions to forge a novel and integrative academic home for clinical and translational sciences that has the consolidated resources to advance and nurture a cadre of well trained multi and interdisciplinary investigators and research teams. The Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute at USF will form the foundation of the CTSA process and will synergize multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary clinical and translational research.

 

 

The goal of the USF CTSI is to make life better for our community by:

  1. Accelerating the translation of bench sciences into community health outcomes

  2. Educating world-class clinical and translation researchers and leaders

  3. Providing efficient and sustainable infrastructure that enable success of collaborative team research

  4. Rewarding a culture of collaborative teams and patient focused innovation
