Measuring translational research impact requires reaching beyond current metrics

Georg N Duda et al. Sci Transl Med. .

Abstract

Translational impact assessment is key to selecting those biomedical research discoveries most likely to be converted into viable new products to improve human health. However, metrics for translational success are variable, are not limited to commercial success, and may not be relevant to every case or institution. Societal impact is a top translational priority in a globalized society.
