Abstract
In 2003, the Journal of Translational Medicine was launched to foster the publication of high quality research in both "bench-to-bedside" as well as ex vivo human observation. In spite of the success of several large-scale observational studies, e.g. Framingham Heart Study, the opportunity to expand upon the ex vivo human observation has remained limited within the field of translational medicine. We believe that this presents a significant opportunity that merits consideration in both the planning and analysis of large scale observational studies and can contribute greatly to expanding our approaches in translational medicine

That for observational studies to be considered within Journal of Translational Medicine (JTM)’s definition of clinical practice, there are several qualities that such a study needs to address in its design and implementation and we outline these below

They focus on establishing association, not proving cause and effect, but can be invaluable for use in the design of more conventional, controlled clinical studies.
