The center’s creation is part of the mission-driven realignment of the NHLBI Office of the Director which has made a strong commitment to serve as a catalyst for advancing translation research and implementation science in heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders. In this column, we present the rationale for the creation of CTRIS; its primary charge and mission; the spectrum of activities in its first year and related funding opportunity announcements; and the scope of future research and scientific endeavors to promote the effective translation and dissemination of evidence-based interventions. …
