Basic and translational research
Basic and translational research
Basic and translational research bridge foundational scientific discoveries and real-world applications. Basic research focuses on understanding fundamental biological processes, while translational research applies these findings to develop practical solutions, like new treatments or diagnostic tools. Together, they accelerate the path from lab discoveries to patient care, enhancing healthcare innovation.
