The Office of Research and Grants has launched a revised strategic plan working towards a vision to be the model of basic and translational research for rural and underserved communities.
Translational Research Facility
The Heritage College will start work on a new facility on the Athens campus dedicated to translational research. This facility will support clinical and translational research by offering a high quality, modern, flexible and accessible research and clinical space focus on providing access to public-facing clinical research.
