The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) which is sometimes referred to herein this plan as the Center is mission focused to catalyze the generation of innovative methods and technologies that will enhance the development, testing and implementation of diagnostics and therapeutics across a wide range of human diseases and conditions. NCATS is improving health through smart science. The goal is to get more treatments to more patients more quickly. The Center develops, demonstrates, and disseminates innovations that reduce, remove or bypass system-wide bottlenecks in the translational process. NCATS focuses on what is common across diseases and collaborates with other government agencies, including other National Institutes of Health (NIH) Institutes and Center’s; industry; academia; and patient support organizations.
