Translational Research

These investigators at VUMC and Meharry Medical College are focused on a range of translational research activities. The work is designed to achieve a comon goal, namely to translate diabetes research advances into clinical or community practice. Important components of our work are understanding and reducing racial and ethnic health disparities. The P&C Core and its two units provide services to investigators with externally funded, diabetes-related translational research addressing the following areas: innovations in care, community engagement, culturally-sensitive/competent interventions, clinical trials, quality improvement, quality assurance, health services research, clinical and psychosocial epidemiology, public policy and environmental studies, and community-based participatory research.
