Message from the CTSI Director
This is fourth year that the CTSI is conducting a competition to honor outstanding accomplishments in clinical research in the Buffalo Translational Consortium (BTC), modeled after the Clinical Research Forum’s Top Ten Clinical Research Achievement Awards conducted nationally. The goal of translational research is to improve health. Thus, we would like to recognize and celebrate major advances resulting from research published by BTC researchers during 2019 that directly benefits the health and welfare of our community and the nation. Finalists and winners will present their work at the annual CTSI Forum in March and the winner will receive a travel stipend to Translational Science 2020 in Washington, the premier clinical and translational science meeting. Finalists may also be nominated for the national awards. Past winners of the awards are noted in this newsletter. I encourage researcher teams to submit your work for recognition. This competition and recognition serve to raise the profile of clinical research locally and nationally.

Timothy F. Murphy MD
SUNY Distinguished Professor of Medicine, Director of UB's Clinical and Translational Science Institute
