Summary: "Translational medicine encompasses aspects of medicine from laboratory research, preclinical studies, clinical trials, clinical practice, through to diagnostics and therapy and combination technologies with a focus on cross-functional collaboration between researchers and clinicians. Translational Biophotonics (TBIO) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to bridging the gap in translating medical photonic research into clinical practice. Optical and photonic technologies have proven their potential regarding specific diagnostic and therapeutic needs in proof-of-concept studies; however, their actual effectiveness has rarely been tested under routine clinical conditions on larger databases/patient cohorts."--Publisher.
