Coordinating Center

The Georgia Clinical & Translational Science Alliance (Georgia CTSA) Coordinating Center is a virtual “front door” for research facilitation in Georgia. The center expedites discovery of the vast Georgia CTSA resources. We support you with navigation to existing resources within and external to the Georgia CTSA.

Within the Georgia CTSA there are 17 different programs across 4 academic institutions and multiple healthcare systems.

We are in partnership with researchers at Emory University, Georgia Tech, Morehouse School of Medicine, the University of Georgia, and the national CTSA consortium.
