What is translational science and how does it impact our CARRA community? To answer these questions, we turn to Dr. Joni L. Rutter, the Director of the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Tune in to hear about how she’s focused on breaking down barriers and speeding up the time it takes to get treatments from the lab to patients. Join us to learn about what translational science means for pediatric rheumatology, why it’s so important for rare diseases, and how data science could be used to help find treatments for rare diseases.
