The Catalyze program utilizes a new approach to translational research by supporting both the technical needs of an innovation and the management, commercialization, regulatory, and training requirements of the innovators developing them. Projects supported by Catalyze receive funding and advisory support through the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), as well as project management assistance, access to technical services and expertise, and training opportunities through the Catalyze Coordinating Center.
