Georgia Clinical & Translational Science Alliance (GaCTSA)

佐治亚州临床和转化科学联盟(GaCTSA)是 埃默里大学、莫尔豪斯医学院、佐治亚理工学院和华盛顿大学 乔治亚州，一个新的学术成员，为我们的CTSA增加了资源和资产。GaCTSA的另一个关键是我们的 医疗保健合作伙伴：Emory Healthcare、Morehouse Healthcare、亚特兰大儿童保健、亚特兰大 弗吉尼亚州医疗中心、格雷迪医疗系统、亚特兰大社区医生网络和我们的 翻译科学合作伙伴，包括耶克斯国家灵长类动物研究中心(位于埃默里)， 佐治亚州研究联盟，佐治亚州生物和链接到美国预防研究中心 疾病控制和预防(CDC)。在过去十年的合作中，GaCTSA的合作伙伴 建立了强大的研究网络，GaCTSA已成为创新、 具有地方、国家和全球影响的高质量临床和转化性研究。UGA的加入 使GaCTSA能够更好地接触我们州的大量农村和未得到充分服务的人口，并增加了新的 资源，包括：糖生物学、传染病、同一健康、 新的临床和转化研究单位，杰出的教育方案，一所药学院；a 强大的推广服务，超越其最初的农业使命，专注于家庭健康；以及 Arway合作伙伴，其使命是将佐治亚州社区与高等教育资源连接起来 满足当地确定的关键社区需求。除了促进创新科学，GaCTSA还将 鼓励协作，提高质量和效率，减少临床和转化性研究的障碍 并加快将生物医学发现转化为临床应用的进程。通向下一个目标的钥匙 在供资周期内，GaCTSA将强调创新培训和劳动力发展、获得和 整合特殊和未得到充分服务的人群，增强生物医学信息学支持和能力， 用于提高质量和效率、增强协作和参与度的新方法和流程，以及 以团队为基础，以质量为重点的预测科学。GaCTSA的具体目标反映了以下目标： NCATS咨询理事会工作组和国际移民组织2013年对CTSA的审查的建议 程序。GaCTSA的具体目标将成为推动这一愿景和方法的指导原则。

The Georgia Clinical and Translational Science Alliance (GaCTSA) is a compelling partnership of Emory University, Morehouse School of Medicine, the Georgia Institute of Technology and the University of Georgia, a new academic member adding resources and assets to our CTSA. Also key to GaCTSA are our healthcare partners: Emory Healthcare, Morehouse Healthcare, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, the Atlanta VA Medical Center, the Grady Health System, and the Atlanta Community Physicians Network and our translational science partners including the Yerkes National Primate Research Center (located at Emory), the Georgia Research Alliance, Georgia Bio and links to the Prevention Research Centers of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Built over the past decade of collaboration, the partners of GaCTSA have forged strong research networks and GaCTSA has become a “24 hour” home and catalyst for innovative, high quality clinical and translational research with local, national and global impact. The addition of UGA allows the GaCTSA to better engage the large, rural and underserved populations of our state and adds new resources, including: outstanding translational research in glycobiology, infectious diseases, One Health, a new clinical and translational research unit, outstanding programs in Education, a School of Pharmacy; a robust extension service that reaches beyond its original agricultural mission to focus on family health; and the Archway Partnership whose mission is to connect Georgia communities with higher education resources to address critical, locally identified community needs. In addition to facilitating innovative science, GaCTSA will encourage collaboration, improve quality and efficiencies, reduce barriers to clinical and translational research and accelerate the process of translating biomedical discoveries into clinical applications. Key to the next funding cycle, GaCTSA will emphasize innovative training and workforce development, access to and integration of special and underserved populations, enhanced biomedical informatics support and capabilities, new methods and processes to improve quality and efficiency, enhanced collaboration and engagement and team-based, quality focused predictive science. The specific aims of GaCTSA reflect the vision and goals of NCATS Advisory Council Working Group and the recommendations of the 2013 IOM review of the CTSA program. The GaCTSA’s specific aims will serve as guiding principles to drive the vision and approach.
