Building a Data Translator
NCATS launched the Biomedical Data Translator program as a multiyear, iterative effort toward the eventual development of a comprehensive and relational “data translator” that integrates multiple types of existing data sources. These sources may include objective signs and symptoms of disease, drug effects, and intervening types of biological data relevant to understanding pathophysiology. Now in the development phase of the program, the fully realized Translator will be designed to enhance human reasoning and enable a significant shift from the current symptom-based diagnosis of disease classification to one that is based on a set of molecular and cellular abnormalities that can be targeted by various preventive and therapeutic interventions.
