Tri-Institutional Clinical and Translational Science Pilot Program

The Tri-Institutional Clinical and Translational Research (CTR) Pilot Program offers pilot grants to develop and advance innovative clinical and translational research, provide a path to sustainable, extramurally-funded independent research, and encourage the development of innovations with the potential for commercialization. The projects are expected to develop the key preliminary data needed for sustained extramural funding.

The three institutions have committed $250,000 toward pilot projects this year. The program is funded through the generous support of each academic partner: Princeton University, New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), and Rutgers University.
