Navigate Master of Science in Translational Research


4 MSTR Concentrations: Discovery, Translational Therapeutics and Regulatory Science, Entrepreneurial Science, Bioinformatics/Biomedical InformaticsStudents enroll in a core set of courses and also choose an academic pathway to concentrate in a specific area of translational science.

DiscoveryFor students who are elucidating the basic pathophysiological etiology and/or process of disease. Projects may be proof of concept in cell or animal models or human samples.

Translational Therapeutics and Regulatory ScienceFor students who are testing discoveries for preclinical and/or clinical effect. Projects may be first in humans, phase 1, or assessing the safety, efficacy, quality, and performance of regulated products.

Entrepreneurial ScienceFor students who aim to navigate both business and academic environments as you conduct research and consider commercialization opportunities.

Bioinformatics/Biomedical InformaticsFor students who are adopting informatics methodologies to develop and test their own hypotheses.
