BOOK
Translational research looks to take the latest innovations made
in the laboratory setting to translate findings into effective
and sustainable medical interventions and improved preventative
measures. Funding support is increasingly tied to practical
healthcare outcomes, with this trend likely only to increase in
coming years, Translational Neuroscience: A Guide to a Successful
Program, is a timely guide to developing research programs that
bring translational advances to the forefront
Translational Neuroscience provides practical information from
scientists with first-hand experience in developing a
cutting-edge translational facility. The book opens with chapters
that provide guidance to organizing a center for translational
science. Chapters look at topics ranging from mentoring and
career planning for clinician scientists to improving the design
of core facilities and addressing infrastructure needs. The
second half of the book provides valuable case studies of
translational neuroscience in action, with examples ranging from
using to transcranial magnetic stimulation to studies on drug
abuse and telemedicine applications. The final chapter looks to
the future of basic science research, how academic health centers
can be reorganized, and how future generations of translational
neuroscientists can be trained
Translational Neuroscience provides a blueprint to developing an
innovative and successful translational research program. Deans
department chairs, academic health center administrators, and
researchers will find this guide useful for drafting programs in
translational research and avoiding costly pitfalls. While
grounded in examples from basic neuroscience research, this book
will be a useful tool to all scientists looking to develop
centers of translational science across research disciplines
