CTSI Logo

The Indiana Clinical & Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI) has been at the forefront of translational research since 2008. From the lab bench to clinical trials and beyond, we help researchers move their scientific findings through the development pipeline. There are over 50 Research Service Cores & Facilities across the Indiana CTSI’s four partner institutions to catalyze your research. The CTSI-designated core facilities listed in the Members tab undergo annual review to promote best practices and ensure they meet the Indiana CTSI Oversight Program’s standards for scientific quality, pricing, customer satisfaction, advisory committees, and core policies governing publications, payment, and dispute resolution.

 

Indiana CTSI investigators enjoy the same internal institutional rates at each of these CTSI-designated cores, regardless of the location. Additionally, all Indiana CTSI-designated cores can be used in CTSI Core Pilot and Postdoctoral Challenge grant applications (see Indiana CTSI Funding Opportunities). Many of these research core facilities are also accessible to outside institutions.

Webinars presented by Indiana CTSI cores can be accessed through the Indiana CTSI YouTube channel.

For assistance in identifying core resources to meet your needs, please contact your campus CTSI Navigator.

The Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute which is funded in part by Award Number UM1TR004402 from the National Institutes of Health, National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, Clinical and Translational Sciences Award.
