Translational Research

Physician-scientists play a crucial role in the continuum of research that ensures a free flow of information and new treatments from the laboratory to the patient bedside and back again. The Fund's Clinical Scientist Awards in Translational Research are designed to foster the productivity of independent physician-scientists at the mid-career level who will strengthen translational research in academic health centers, both through their own studies as well as their mentoring of the next generation of physician-scientist trainees.

BWF also supports activities that impact the environment in which translational research is conducted. Of particular interest are efforts that provide career development resources to young investigators.
