Hello world! I am editing!

The University at Buffalo Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) was created to accelerate the delivery of basic scientific discoveries from the laboratory to clinical trials, and from clinical trials into general practice.  

Message from the Director

Welcome to the website of the UB Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI). Guided by our vision to perform research to improve health and reduce health disparities in our community, spectacular growth in clinical and translational research in the Buffalo region has occurred over the past several years. This growth has resulted from an enormous commitment from the institutions of the Buffalo Translational Consortium and has been catalyzed by an NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award, a large grant that provides broad-based support to clinical and translational research.

Our CTSI participates actively in a national network of more than 50 leading medical schools and academic health centers that are committed to performing research with a primary goal to improve health.

It is clear that people who participate in clinical research have better health outcomes, have more cost efficient care and are more satisfied with their health care. Engaging our community members in clinical research will enable these benefits. We are committed to developing a diverse workforce and engaging participants who reflect the diversity of our community in our research.

We are always looking to improve and expand our research efforts. We use a team-based approach to engage health care providers, community members, research staff, trainees and faculty. We have a robust education, training and career development program to train future leaders in clinical and translational research.

I encourage you to explore our website to learn more about the CTSI.
