CTSI's Vision

Advancing clinical and translational science in order to reduce health disparities and improve the health of the community and the nation.

People who participate in clinical research have better health outcomes, have more cost-efficient care and are more satisfied with their health care. Therefore, the Clinical and Translational Science Institute and other Buffalo Translational Consortium members are committed to engaging with the residents of Western New York. The team-based approach to engagement includes health care providers, research staff, trainees and faculty.
