Translational Research: involves the application of knowledge gained through basic research to studies that could support the development of new products. For example, translational research in the field of medicine may involve using knowledge of the biology of a disease to identify and evaluate chemical compounds in disease models, with a view to selecting potential candidate drugs to advance into clinical trials.
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is challenging our health care systems and has profoundly impacted our society. Due to the poor global public health response, SARS-CoV-2 has developed many variants....
