Abstract
During the past six years, multiple countries have embraced the concept of translational medicine. This is generally understood as improving prevention and treatment strategies for patients and for communities through translating discoveries in basic and clinical research into products and practices in an efficient, cost-effective manner. Although the emphasis on the different domains of translation vary among countries and institutions, all are developing an increasing ability to share ideas and practices through an international language of translation.
