The second area of translation concerns research aimed at enhancing the adoption of best practices in the community.
Cost-effectiveness of prevention and treatment strategies is also an important part of translational research.
Translational research informatics is relatively new, with most CTSA awardee academic medical centers actively acquiring and integrating systems to enable the end-to-end TRI requirements.
One advanced TRI system is being implemented at the Windber Research Institute in collaboration with GenoLogics and InforSense.
Translational Research Informatics systems are expected to rapidly develop and evolve over the next couple of years.
