Our Mission

The Coordination, Communication, and Operations Support (CCOS) Center serves as the coordinating center for the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program. Our primary goal is to facilitate the work of collaborative scientific teams within the CTSA, while also providing logistical support and ensuring a smooth flow of data, information, and insights throughout the network. To achieve this, the CCOS Center offers a range of services to CTSA stakeholders. These services include the development of websites and software applications, analysis of the real-world impact of the CTSA, communication across the consortium, support for collaboration and team science, logistics assistance for meetings and conferences, and program-specific training.
