. The low rate of translation from basic science to clinical application has been a source of frustration for many scientists, clinicians, investors, policy makers, and patients who hoped that investments in research would result in improved products and processes for patients (Mankoff et al., 2004)

Improved communication to allow for clinical and patient needs to inform the priorities of basic science research can offer a clearer path toward improving clinical application. The realignment of academic incentives, the detection of innovative ways to fund translational research, and the generation or identification of alternative models that accurately reflect human biology or disease provide opportunities to work across sectors to advance the translation of genomic discoveries.
