The Georgia Clinical and Translational Science Alliance (CTSA) is an NIH-funded alliance at UGA, Emory, Georgia Tech, and Morehouse focused on advancing basic, translational, and clinical research and innovation while translating findings and discoveries to practice and into communities. In 2022, the NIH awarded Georgia CTSA $58.6 million over five years, ensuring its continued impact. Since its founding in 2007, Georgia CTSA has been a cornerstone of innovation and scientific discovery in the region.

Georgia CTSA provides funding, training, mentoring, matchmaking, and other forms of support to anyone at UGA or other allied institutions whose work is related to their mission.

The Clinical and Translational Research Unit (CTRU), located on the UGA Health Sciences Campus, supports investigators conducting clinical and translational studies that advance understanding, prevention, and treatment of human disease.
