Translation occurs in two separate but sequential phases. Phase I Translation, usually dubbed "bench-to-bedside," applies basic scientific discoveries to human healthcare under controlled conditions, i.e., clinical research. Phase II Translation promotes the adoption of the fruits of promising clinical research by community-based healthcare under uncontrolled and (often) uncontrollable conditions.
