ICTS
Overview
CPHSS is part of the evaluation team for the Institute of Clinical and Translational Sciences (ICTS) Tracking & Evaluation Program, formed from a 2007 Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) granted to Washington University in St. Louis.
The Tracking & Evaluation Program of ICTS is a collaborative program comprised of partners from CPHSS, Washington University’s School of Medicine, Becker Library, and members of ICTS Administrative Core. This is a large-scale institutional and scientific evaluation designed to use evidence-based and innovative evaluation methods to provide important information to ICTS leadership to make effective decisions leading to organizational change. Our evaluation is also designed to show the impact of ICTS support on scientific outcomes that result in clinical applications and meaningful community health results.
