The Centers for Diabetes Translation Research (CDTRs) are part of an integrated program of diabetes, endocrinology and metabolic disease research funded by the NIDDK.
The mission of the CDTR program is to improve translation of research findings related to diabetes prevention, treatment, and health equity by supporting research across the T2-T4 translational spectrum (i.e., bedside to clinical practice and community settings, dissemination and implementation research).
CDTRs are organized as diverse multidisciplinary and multisectoral partnerships that include academic institutions, community health center networks, human service agencies, and other organizations. These innovative Centers provide the infrastructure needed to advance research in health disparities and health equity by providing highly specialized technical expertise as well as local, regional, and national core research resources to both established and early-stage investigators.
