Join the Institute of Clinical and Translational Sciences (ICTS) for the 6th annual ICTS Symposium. This year’s theme centers on the unique role of translational science, which focuses on innovation that overcomes challenges, and the gaps that exist between early-phase research and clinical trials, and between clinical trials and implementation into clinical practice and population health.
