Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program

Under NIH National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences’ (NCATS) leadership, the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program supports a national network of medical research institutions — called hubs ― that work together to improve the translational research process to get more treatments to more patients more quickly. The hubs collaborate locally and regionally to catalyze innovation in training, research tools and processes. UNC-Chapel Hill’s CTSA program is administered by North Carolina Translational and Clinical Sciences (NC TraCS) Institute.
