Cultural Adaptation in Translational Research: Field Experiences

Introduction : Cultural Transmission — A Multidisciplinary Research Field

Translational research on Trichoderma: from 'omics to the field.

Structural and functional genomics investigations are making an important impact on the current understanding and application of microbial agents used for plant disease control. Here, we review the case of Trichoderma spp., the most widely applied biocontrol fungi, which have been extensively studied using a variety of research approaches, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabo...

Translational research in retinology

Clinical laboratories are strong, integral partners in personalized health care. Laboratory databases hold a vast amount of data on human phenotypes, genotypes, biomarkers, progression of disease, and response to therapy. These structured and unstructured free text data are critical for patient care and a resource for personalized medicine and translational research. Laboratory data are integra...

Translational Research in Endocrinology

The term “translational research” first appeared on Pubmed in 1993 in a review by authors from the NIH calling for investigation of biomarkers for the early detection of cancer [1]. Since that publication, over 7,000 manuscripts on Pubmed use the search term “translational research.” Traditionally, translational research has been used to describe research discoveries initiated at the bench and ...

Translational Antidote Research: A Bedside to Bench Tale

Although antidote development should proceed in an orderly fashion from observation, to experimental and safety studies, to clinical trials, this sequence is not always precisely followed. The development of fomepizole as an antidote for toxic alcohol and glycol poisoning is an example of how this may not be the case. Interest in the development of fomepizole was spurred in the 1960s. Shortly t...
