The Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) Pilot Program at NC TraCS is now accepting applications for our CTS Pilot Awards. These awards support projects that advance translational science—the field focused on understanding the scientific and operational principles that underlie each step of the translational process—with up to $50,000 in direct costs for a period of one year.

NC TraCS is holding information sessions via Zoom for investigators interested in learning more about this funding opportunity. Topics covered during the session include:

• What is Translational Science as distinct from Translational Research?
• Application procedure, including required application components, important dates and contact information
• Program-specific grantsmanship tips
• Q&A
