2013 TAPITMAT-TBIC Award Recipients
The Translational Biomedical Imaging Center (TBIC) of the Institute for Translational Medicine and Therapeutics (ITMAT) announces itsthird round of successful applications for Pilot Grants.
The mission of these grants is to help catalyze collaborations between primary imaging scientists and primary biomedical/clinical researchers that integrate novel imaging approaches to enhance translational science and medicine and thus assist investigators in obtaining key data to seek extramural funding.
