Hub Attendance Guidelines and Registration Each hub may send up to 9 attendees, not including TIN, Steering Committee, or Fall Planning Committee members. This includes:

• Up to 5 representatives of hub leadership (per the NOFO)
• 1 representative per EC (up to 4 total)

Justification for Attendance 

Due to the addition of Enterprise Committee meetings to this year’s event, we are planning for a larger number of attendees at both the EC meetings and the general meeting. We strongly encourage Enterprise Committee (EC) members to attend the general sessions along with your hub leadership. Their participation ensures committee perspectives are integrated into broader programmatic discussions and helps align efforts across the CTSA Program. This cross-functional engagement is vital for fostering collaboration and innovation.

Each hub may submit one poster related to the theme of the Poster Presentation Session, “Innovative Hub Projects Advancing Clinical and Translational Science,” that falls within one of the five categories:

1. Strategic Management, Pilot Programs, and/or Element E Programs: Initiatives that enhance hub operations, including innovative evaluation programs, pilot programs or Element E programs.
2. Workforce Development: Initiatives that support training, mentoring, and career development for translational research and science professionals, including clinical research professionals, scholars, trainees, and early-career investigators.
3. Research Resources: Initiatives that improve access to or utilization of core services, tools, or infrastructure that support translational research and/or advance translational science.
4. Biostatistics, Biomedical Informatics, and Data Science: Initiatives that leverage data-driven approaches, informatics platforms, or statistical innovations to accelerate research and improve decision-making in translational science.
5. Community and Stakeholder Engagement: Initiatives that foster meaningful partnerships with patients, communities, and stakeholders to ensure research is inclusive, relevant, and impactful.

We ask that the UL1/UM1 Principal Investigators work with their respective teams to select a hub initiative that exemplifies innovations advancing clinical and translational science and offers potential for broader adoption across the consortium.
