The Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) is here to sharpen your science by helping to facilitate all of the processes that make up research and innovation. As needs arise—for a program, resource, collaboration, or conversation—we create solutions to help meet them. We strive to be flexible, efficient, and effective in helping you work through the details of your projects, every step of the way. Your science should be inspiring. We can help.

The CCTS is funded by a Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) from the National Center for Advancing Transactional Sciences, National Institutes of Health, and grant UL1TR003096. We are one of 62 CTSA programs nationwide and the only CTSA in Alabama. Established in 2008, the CCTS Partner Network, which spans 11 academic research institutions in three Deep South states (AL, MS, LA), is the foundation of our collaborative efforts.
