## Abstract

Contact PD/PI: Coller, Barry
The overall vision of the Rockefeller University Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS),
supported by the CTSA program, is to develop, demonstrate, and disseminate innovative programs to achieve
translational success and to integrate these into a seamless “Learning Clinical Research Enterprise” that uses
outcome data to drive quality improvement for the benefit of human health. To achieve this vision we will
enhance our existing programs and add new ones. Specific aims: 1. To integrate our existing and new
programs into a Translational Research Navigation (TRN) Program that encourages, facilitates, and insures
the integrity of all human subjects research from conception to conclusion, and that will expedite our
participation in the CTSA network of multi-center studies. 2. To integrate our existing and new programs into a
Translational Workforce Educational Program that insures that all members of the translational workforce
have the knowledge and skills required for them to perform their functions individually and as members of
diverse scientific teams. 3. To integrate our existing and new programs into a From Discovery to Health-
Enhancing Product Program to insure that investigators have the resources to maximize the likelihood that
they can translate their novel discoveries into products that improve human health. To achieve this vision, we
will: 1. Integrate our Community Engaged Navigation, Protocol Navigation, Research Participant Engagement
in Protocol Priorities and Design, Basic Scientist Outreach, Mutually Aligned Community Engaged/ Mechanistic
Science, Centralized Recruitment and Research Volunteer Repository, Ontology-Backed Phenotyping, and
Research Participant Perception programs with a new Protocol Implementation Navigation program into an
overarching TRN program under a new administrative structure with senior leadership. TRN will be supported
by an integrated Informatics infrastructure adopting best practices and NIH and CTSA data standards. TRN will
support both local protocols and CTSA network protocols with TRN leadership serving on the Liaisons to the
Trial and Recruitment Innovation Centers. 2. Integrate our extensive current educational programs, including
the KL2 Clinical Scholars program, with new educational initiatives to: prepare community clinicians to
participate in research teams, enhance Clinical Research Nursing training, provide a full range of educational
experiences in translating scientific discoveries into health-enhancing products, develop ontology-backed
phenotyping instruments, and query large electronic health record databases to test scientific hypotheses at
the population level. 3. Integrate the new Tri-Institutional Therapeutic Development Institute, which provides
access to medicinal chemists and drug project management, with the CCTS Pilot program, the Rockefeller
scientific resource centers, the New York Genome Center, the new Robertson Therapeutic Developm...
