Highlights: The Atlanta Clinical and Translational Science Institute (Atlanta-CTSI) is led by Emory University, along with partners Morehouse School of Medicine, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. These institutions are already partners in healthcare, education, and cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research that will be propelled by the Atlanta-CTSI.
The established partnerships and diverse faculty enable the Atlanta-CTSI to combine strong clinical, translational, training and basic discovery programs at Emory with the health disparities, training and community outreach focus of Morehouse School of Medicine together with the engineering and bioinformatics achievements of Georgia Tech and the excellence in pediatrics of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. Collaborations with the private non-profit Georgia Bio organization and the Georgia Research Alliance, the state-sponsored academic-industry partnership, create additional synergies that foster and accelerate development and application of new and emerging technologies. Finally the Atlanta-CTSI creates dynamic community, public health, informatics, and population studies programs through partnerships and collaborations with Kaiser Permanente of Georgia (KPGA), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
