What does CTM mean in MEDICAL

Translational medicine seeks to turn basic science discoveries into new clinical applications, in order to directly benefit patients. It bridges the gap between laboratory research and improved diagnostics or treatments for diseases and other medical conditions.

CTM focuses on five foundational areas of translational work including molecular sciences, computational sciences, bioinformatics, data sciences, and clinical trials. Through extensive partnerships with academic and industry experts, they facilitate collaborations seeking to achieve new scientific insights as well as create novel technologies and therapeutics.

Projects such as cancer immunotherapy, gene editing approaches to cardiothoracic disease, utilizing artificial intelligence tools with precision medicine in rare genetic disorders, bioprocessing improvements for biologics manufacturing processes are some of the many initiatives currently underway at CTM.

CTM has established long-term relationships with board certified physicians from various academic institutions and global pharmaceutical companies. These collaborations enable new drug targets discovery capabilities by leveraging patient data from clinical studies or using high throughput methodologies such preclinical models along with imaging techniques. In addition, CTM provides analytical services that help partners reduce their development timeline costs using advanced informatics techniques for data analysis.
