What does translational research involve?

  1. Adapting research methods to different environments

  2. Analyzing large sets of statistical data

  3. Reviewing and summarizing clinical trials

  4. Translating information obtained and applying it into practice

The correct answer is: Translating information obtained and applying it into practice

Translational research involves taking the information or findings obtained from research studies and applying them into practical use or clinical practice. This process bridges the gap between research findings and their implementation in real-world settings to improve patient outcomes. Through translational research, new knowledge and discoveries are translated into practice to benefit patients and healthcare systems.
