Translational research refers to the process of applying findings from basic scientific research to develop practical applications and solutions for real-world problems in clinical or community settings. It aims to bridge the gap between scientific discovery and its implementation in healthcare practices or other fields.
The process typically involves several stages, starting from basic research conducted in laboratories or academic settings, progressing to preclinical studies in animal models, and eventually moving into clinical trials involving human subjects. Successful translational research ultimately leads to the development of new treatments, therapies, diagnostics, or interventions that can improve human health and well-being.
Translational research is interdisciplinary in nature, involving collaboration between scientists, clinicians, engineers, and other experts from various fields to address complex challenges and bring innovations from the laboratory to the bedside or marketplace. This approach helps ensure that scientific discoveries have meaningful and practical applications that can benefit society.
