description INTRODUCTION: The Duke Multidisciplinary Education and Research in Translational Sciences Program provides educational resources for faculty and trainees in translational research. METHODS: To aid in program development, we assessed perceptions of translational science through focus groups targeting different career stages. RESULTS: In total, 3 essential themes emerged: collaboration, movement toward application, and public health impact. Facilitators and barriers varied among groups. CONCLUSION: Training programs must provide specific strategies for collaboration and selectively accelerating discoveries to therapies.
