This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications for the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program hubs that will be part of a national, collaborative consortium focused on bringing more treatments to more patients more quickly through advancing clinical and translational science (CTS) by (1) developing, demonstrating, and disseminating scientific and operational innovations that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical translation from identification to first-in-human studies to medical practice implementation to community health dissemination; (2) promoting partnerships and collaborations to facilitate and accelerate translational research projects locally, regionally, and nationally; (3) creating, providing, and disseminating innovative research programs and partnerships across institutions and communities to address health disparities and deliver the benefits of translational science to all; (4) creating and implementing scientific and operational innovations that increase the quality, safety, efficiency, effectiveness, and informativeness of clinical research; (5) providing a national resource for the rapid response to urgent public health needs; and (6) creating, providing, and disseminating CTS training for clinical research professionals of all disciplines on the research team. Along with this solicitation for the UM1 CTSA hub application, NCATS has published a separate, companion FOA that solicits applications for a required K12 Clinical Scientist Institutional Career Development Program Award (PAR-TR-22-career); both a UM1 hub application and the required K12 application must be submitted. If there is no companion K12 application submitted, the UM1 hub application will not be reviewed. However, if the UM1 application is funded and the companion K12 application is not funded, a resubmitted K12 application will be accepted. Additional companion FOAs solicit applications for optional training, career, and research ed
