Translation means implementation of scientific results in therapeutic practise which is economically justifiable. These include pre-clinical studies, preparation and performance of clinical studies, monitoring marketing compliance, and reimbursement by the compulsory health insurance funds, as well as development of valorisation concepts and commercialisation models. |

It is a typical feature of highly innovative areas such as regenerative medicine that the translation process is both complex and prone to uncertainties. This is the case since research and legal regulations are in a state of permanent development. In addition, there is an obvious lack of experience with the translation process of innovative new therapies as compared to traditional medicines.
In the frame of the joint research project „Added value in regenerative medicine – a pioneering project for the reduction of translation obstacles“ RTC will develop strategies for a successful and transparent translation process for innovative applications of regenerative medicine along the example of cardiac stem cell therapy. As ultimate goal, RTC is to establish as an internationally recognized reference and translation center for cardiac stem cell therapy which will also offer training programmes.
