The mission of the Journal of Clinical and Translational Science (JCTS) is to provide a forum for disseminating advances in clinical and translational science. JCTS, the official journal of the Association for Clinical and Translational Science and the Clinical Research Forum, is a fully Open Access journal publishing high-quality articles on research that spans the translational continuum, as well as education research that informs the development of the translational workforce. Topics of interest include investigations into how to best develop processes and people that translate discoveries into improved health. The Association for Clinical and Translational Science has partnered with the Clinical Research Forum (CRF) to support the growth and development of JCTS. The Journal's founding Editor is Arthur M. Feldman, MD, PhD.
