The Translational Research Program (TRP) at Children's Hospital Boston (CHB) was created in order to stimulate and facilitate the
development of preclinical and ultimately, human translational trials seeking to improve the
care of children with serious diseases. In order to do this, the TRP provides support for
faculty-initiated pre-clinical and clinical translational research projects, in addition to ensuring
adequate infrastructure to facilitate the rapid completion of these trials. The TRP will also fund a cadre of CHB investigators to help them pursue successful translational research.
Focus areas of the TRP include:
- Stimulative grants program
- Improvement in institutional cores needed to support disease-specific non-clinical and early phase human studies
- Multidisciplinary retreats to foster interactions across the spectrum of research and clinical activities
- Funding for the development of faculty and staff
