program.
The UCI ICTS Pilot Awards Program supports local, cutting-edge research in the early phases with the
goal of nurturing these projects as they plan for larger, externally funded studies.
Explore some of the key inputs and outputs of our Pilot Awards Program including total projects
funded, publications produced by awardees, return on investment, and more.
Our KL-2 program supports newly trained clinicians and scientists in activities related to the
development of a successful clinical and translational research career. Out TL-1 program helps to
support research training experiences for pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees who are interested
pursuing research careers in multi-disciplinary clinical and translational science.
Explore our annual totals for publications produced by TL-1/KL-2 awardees and their industry and
academic affiliations.
Research projects that the Institute for Clinical and Translational Science (ICTS) provided resources for, have resulted in a growing number of publications since 2011.

Relative Citation Ration (RCR) generated by the NIH iCite website. RCR weights publication impact based on the number of citations common in a field. A paper with RCR = 1 has the average amount of citations compared to other papers in the same field. Publications supported by the ICTS have a mean RCR of 2.1 more than twice the number of citations compared to similar papers in their field.
A substantial number of publications were of especially high impact, with over 100 ICTS-supported publications that have more than 7 times the common citations of papers in its field.
