About ICTR

Overview

Established in 2007, the UW–Madison Institute for Clinical & Translational Research (ICTR) provides training, funding and services to help clinical and translational researchers from many fields grow their careers and increase their impact.

We connect researchers with resources that increase the efficiency and equity of their work, while also shortening the time between discovery and clinical/community impact. Learn more about how we accomplish this by exploring our programs, research services, funding opportunities, and education and training programs.

Partners

ICTR is based at the UW–Madison School of Medicine and Public Health (SMPH) and represents a robust, multidirectional partnership between SMPH and the UW–Madison Schools of Education, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Veterinary Medicine; the College of Engineering; and the Marshfield Clinic Research Institute, a national leader in rural health.

Health equity

Health equity is an important lens for all of ICTR’s work. Our programs and services help researchers from diverse backgrounds further their professional development; assist researchers in factoring equity into their research design and building trust with communities; support pilot projects that further health equity in Wisconsin and beyond; provide rich opportunities for learning; and much more.
