Pilot Study Awards

Overview
The ICTS Translational Science Pilot Studies Award Program offers one-year awards to provide investigators with support to engage in proof-of-concept or preliminary research that addresses a common roadblock or bottleneck in translational research. Projects are expected to inform a subsequent application for extramural funding to extend the findings, which should be generalizable across multiple diseases and lead to improved efficiency or effectiveness of future translational research.
