Abstract

Translational research, is an innovative and multidisciplinary approach to bring laboratory findings into clinical practice or explain clinical findings in the laboratory settings. This primarily bridges the gap between basic scientific research and the clinical applications. It focuses on transforming discoveries made in the laboratory into practical applications to improve human health. For a number of decades most of the research funds were utilized for basic research thus a lot of knowledge is produced without clinical application. Thus it’s now time to focus on translational work so that all the knowledge produce should have practical applications. This may give new diagnostic tests, identifies novel therapeutic targets planting a seed for development of new therapeutic molecules. This editorial presents a brief of the reasons to focus on translational research in countries like Pakistan.
