Abstract

The Journal of Translational Medicine is pleased to announce a prize to recognize outstanding contributions in the field of translational medicine. This year, the Bedside-to-Bench Award was provided by an anonymous donor and supported by the Journal of Translational Medicine Editorial Board. Applications should be submitted directly to the Journal of Translational Medicine [1].

Highlights

  • Honoring the legacy of patients by promoting clinically-relevant, evidence-based research "And did we, the seven, start from our seats in horror, and stand trembling and shuddering, and aghast, for the tones in the voice of the shadow were not the tone of any one being, but of a multitude of beings, and, varying in their cadences from syllable to syllable, fell duskily upon our ears in the well-remembered and familiar accents of many thousand departed friends"

  • I am reminded of parents who visited my laboratory following the death of their son; they asked the cell lines growing from his fatal cancer be named after him

  • Medicine in which we suggested that translational research is a two way street where the bedside-to-bench direction plays a Cinderella's role [3]

Summary

Introduction

Honoring the legacy of patients by promoting clinically-relevant, evidence-based research "And did we, the seven, start from our seats in horror, and stand trembling and shuddering, and aghast, for the tones in the voice of the shadow were not the tone of any one being, but of a multitude of beings, and, varying in their cadences from syllable to syllable, fell duskily upon our ears in the well-remembered and familiar accents of many thousand departed friends". Honoring the legacy of patients by promoting clinically-relevant, evidence-based research We published an Editorial emphasizing the need to encourage discovery-driven research as a complement to hypothesis testing to better frame experimentation in the context of disease relevance [2].
