PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATIONS

Collaborations and partnerships are essential for success in translational research. Over the years, SPORE teams reached beyond their grants to partner with other government programs, foundations, and industry to move discoveries into early phase clinical testing. Each SPORE has multiple collaborative activities. Presented here are highlights of recent projects to illustrate the range of collaborations and partnerships driven by SPOREs.
