Morehouse School of Medicine (SOM) works to achieve its vision of advancing health equity through conducting transformational, translation science (T). T describes our translational research continuum, symbolizing a method and scientific philosophy that intentionally promotes and supports convergence of interdisciplinary approaches and scientists to stimulate exponential advances for the health of diverse communities. Morehouse SOM actualizes T through multidisciplinary translational teams (MDTTs). We chronicle the identification of MDTTs by documenting formation, composition, functioning, successes, failures, and sustainability. Data and information were collected through key informant interviews, review of research documents, workshops, and community events. Our scan identified 16 teams that meet our Morehouse SOM definition of an MDTT. These team science workgroups cross basic science, clinical, and public health academic departments, and include community partners and student learners. We present four MDTTs, in various stages of progress, at Morehouse SOM and how they are advancing translational research.
莫尔豪斯医学院（SOM）致力于通过开展变革性的转化科学（T）来实现其促进健康公平的愿景。T 描述了我们的转化研究连续体，象征着一种方法和科学哲学，它有意促进和支持跨学科方法和科学家的融合，以刺激多样化社区的健康取得指数级进步。莫尔豪斯 SOM 通过多学科转化团队（MDTT）实现 T。我们通过记录形成、组成、运作、成功、失败和可持续性来记录 MDTT 的识别。数据和信息通过关键知情人访谈、研究文件审查、研讨会和社区活动收集。我们的扫描确定了 16 个符合莫尔豪斯 SOM 对 MDTT 定义的团队。这些团队科学工作组跨越基础科学、临床和公共卫生学术部门，包括社区合作伙伴和学生学习者。我们展示了莫尔豪斯 SOM 处于不同进展阶段的四个 MDTT 及其推进转化研究的方式。
