Translational Science is an emerging academic and scientific discipline which translates scientific discoveries into real-world applications to improve human health.  Translational scientists conduct  rigorous studies at different levels of the research process, including basic, pre-clinical, clinical, and community levels.  

Key elements in the translational science process are:

1) applying scientific discoveries in the lab or at the bedside in ways that are more efficient and effective 

2) shortening the time between scientific discovery and application.
