This national consortium of medical research institutions, funded through Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSAs), is working together and shares a common vision to:

  • Improve the way biomedical research is conducted across the country
  • Reduce the time it takes for laboratory discoveries to become treatments for patients
  • Engage communities in clinical research efforts
  • Train the next generation of clinical and translational researchers

Texas Regional CTSA Consortium
The Texas CTSA Consortium is a regional consortium of the national Clinical and Translational Science Award program . The goal of the Texas CTSA Consortium is to facilitate clinical and translational research and dissemination among the Texas CTSA institutions and other interested Texas and national biomedical research institutions.

The Research, Condition, and Disease Categorization (RCDC) Project – Tracking NIH-funded research
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has created a new Web-based tool that will provide public access to detailed information on NIH research activities. Scheduled for a spring 2009 unveiling, the Research, Condition, and Disease Categorization (RCDC) system will sort more than 85,000 NIH-funded projects into 360 categories. The RCDC will provide access to three different types of NIH funding: extramural research grants, research and development contracts, and intramural research. The organization’s research activities have always been available on the NIH Web site. However, this new system is intended to provide more consistency in the reporting and categorization of the projects.
