The CTSA program will need to be evaluated in stages because its true worth will not be evident imme- diately. Benefits should be seen in the development of investigators that are trained and at ease in working between the borders of clinicaland translational re- search; they will be knowledgeable about how to work with industry and with regulatory organizations. They will understand the processes required for the bidirec- tional flow of information between preclinical research and clinical trials and studies, although their own ef- forts may be focused in one particular area.An in- creased public awareness and trust in clinical research will be another outcome, along with increased efficien- cies in developing new treatments and approaches for both rare diseases and common diseases. The ultimate test is for the CTSAs to become an integral and essen- tial partof health-care delivery that can benefit all persons in this country.

Although this is a thorough argument for sustaining and expanding economic growth in the aftermath of our developing economy, it sti...
