Introducing: The Frontiers Podcast

The Frontiers Podcast focuses on individuals and institutions associated with Frontiers: The Heartland Institute for Clinical and Translational Research. 

Headquartered at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Frontiers is a network of scientists from across the Kansas City region and the state of Kansas working on translational research — research that transforms laboratory discoveries into treatments and cures.

Frontiers is part of the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Consortium, a national group of medical research institutions funded by the National Institutes of Health. The Center for Practical Bioethics is a partner of this endeavor.

In this edition of The Frontiers Podcast we mark Frontier’s one year anniversary of the CTSA grant to the University of Kansas. Richard Barohn, MD, is director of Frontiers, and Lauren Aaronson, PhD, is deputy director.
