The Presbyterian Health Foundation (PHF) Clinical Translational Grant Award supports collaborative healthcare research at the University of Oklahoma Health Campus (OUHC). Projects develop a multidisciplinary research program focused on a disease, biomedical problem area, or clinically relevant problem. The basic science and clinician investigators must each bring expertise essential to the proposed scientific objectives.
The program aims to expand innovative research and strengthen collaborations across disciplines. It supports translation of basic or preclinical observations, as well as translation, dissemination, and implementation of clinical observations in community settings. PHF also seeks collaborations that lead to co-authored papers and grant applications.
