£1,000,000

The biomedical translational strategy of UCL and its partner hospitals is based upon harnessing the wealth of talent and ideas across disciplines to make a difference to patients and their families. The WT Translational Partnership Award supports the pursuit of excellence in the universities tripartite mission "Research, Education and Innovation" and will enhance the knowledge, culture and support available for translation: • Provide funding to develop pilot data enabling progression of projects to our internal Therapeutic Acceleration Fund. Aimed at encouraging Early Career Scientists to take the first step along the translational pathway (RESEARCH) • Enable a greater understanding of translation amongst early career researchers through a mixture of on-line training material and workshops (EDUCATION) • Supporting our Therapeutic Innovation Networks (TINs) in small molecule, biologics, cell, gene & regenerative medicine, devices, diagnostics and repurposing. These "early discovery therapeutic accelerators" will identify and address barriers encountered, share knowledge/best practice and use Industry expertise to progress specific projects (INNOVATION)
