Mind the Gap: Overcoming Barriers in Translational Science

6th Annual ICTS Symposium and Poster Display
About this Event

Please join us in-person on Friday, May 17, 2024 for the 6th Annual Symposium hosted by the Institute of Clinical and Translational Sciences. This year’s theme highlights the unique role of translational science, which focuses on innovation that overcomes challenges. Gaps in the translational science pathway, and ideas for resolution, will be discussed.

We welcome keynote speaker Ruth O'Hara, PhD, Director of Spectrum, the Stanford University CTSA hub. She is also Senior Associate Dean of Research and the Lowell W. and Josephine Q. Berry Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.

Other highlights include presentations and panels devoted to the gaps that exist between early-phase research and clinical trials, and between clinical trials and implementation into clinical practice and population health.

Please visit our website for up-to-date details on the agenda, speakers, and posters.
