REQUEST COLLABORATION HELP FROM A TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH FACILITATOR

Translational Research Facilitators (TRFs) are a group of senior faculty from the Hershey and University Park campuses with a broad and intimate knowledge of research and resources across the university.  The research foci of the TRFs span the basic, clinical, social, and physical sciences.

TRFs can provide guidance to researchers in a number of areas:

  • Finding collaborators
  • Finding funding opportunities
  • Finding the appropriate regulatory and intellectual property assistance

Researchers requiring assistance in any of the above areas can contact the appropriate TRF directly or request assistance electronically here.
