CTSciNet: Groups
One of the keys to translating a basic-science discovery into a real-world therapy is commercialization--and that means either starting a new company or licensing your technology.
Meet students in clinical/basic science dual-degree programs and discuss the issues that matter to you.
For the discussion of the issues women face entering, surviving, and thriving in and after MD/PhD programs

This group was created to enable users to discuss issues relating to translational medicine ontology and/or translational bioinformatics. Both terms are used simultaneously as they may coexist, but often overlap in their efforts to enable researchers, clinicians, and those involved in the pharmaceutical industry to more easily digest and understand all forms of information as it becomes available. As expected with any group, input from participants will help to direct the overall focus.
Group to facilitate interaction and collaboration between PhDs involved in translational research.
