The South Carolina Clinical and Translational Research Institute (SCTR)

The South Carolina Clinical and Translational Research Institute (SCTR) will be the catalyst for changing the culture of biomedical research, facilitating sharing of resources and expertise, and streamlining research-related processes to bring about large-scale, change in the clinical and translational research efforts in South Carolina. SCTR will facilitate the kind of cross-disciplinary research that can provide answers to these complex problems by coordinating expertise and resources throughout the state. SCTR will also catalyze the development of teams of researchers with unique and complimentary perspectives who will create and implement effective, culturally sensitive primary and secondary prevention and treatment interventions based on fundamental discoveries.
