The mission of the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) is to catalyze the generation of innovative methods and technologies that will enhance the development, testing, and implementation of interventions across a wide range of human diseases and conditions. NCATS is directly addressing this problem by discovering new technologies and other approaches that could greatly accelerate the process of developing and deploying therapeutic solutions. An introduction of the Center’s internal research operations will be presented, focusing on the use of advanced assay and chemistry technologies to address the wide range of needs associated with early discovery space. Further, an overview of collaborative opportunities for joint projects will be provided.
