The Trial Innovation Network, an initiative of the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program, is a national multidisciplinary platform that will enable multicenter clinical trials and studies. A key goal of the Trial Innovation Network is to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical trials and studies by focusing on innovation, excellence, and collaboration; leveraging the strength and expertise of the CTSA Program; and fostering partnerships among the Institutes and Centers of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers, participants, providers, industry, and other stakeholders.
