A gift to TRAM will further our mission to educate, inspire, and support scholars in translating their research discoveries into diagnostics and therapeutics to improve human health
The Stanford TRAM program was established with the goal of enabling both MD clinicians and PhD trained scientists to engage in team science translational clinical research involving human participants by providing core resources, research mentorship and training, pilot grants, a translational research seminar series and an annual translational medicine symposium. TRAM has as its overall goal to train students, residents, and fellows in performing research, to provide patients with state of the art clinical care, and to facilitate basic, clinical and translational medical research bringing together clinicians and researchers in new translational projects. Now entering its 11th year, TRAM has provided pilot funding for over 200 research projects that have involved over 500 students, fellows and faculty; supported over 150 seminars, mini-symposia and career perspectives and organized 10 annual research symposia. TRAM also supported “personal perspectives” lectures from international leaders in medicine, organized an annual Symposium and Retreat, and built the first Translational Applications Service Center (TASC) that provides direct supervised training and support for processing and analyzing clinical human specimens, has unique proteomic technology, facilities for isolation or cells, RNA, DNA and protein and maintenance of human materials in vitro.
