This talk explores the translation gap, both as the scientific journey from bench to bedside and as the challenge of translating between the stakeholders who ultimately determine success: investors, regulators, payers, physicians, and patients. It also provides a practical overview of the Northwestern programs and resources offered through the Querrey InQbation Lab that help bridge the gap between academic innovation and real-world impact.
