Success requires someone who understands the idea intimately, and who can build a multidisciplinary team to guide it along the translational path. Intellectual and cultural barriers must be disregarded. Translational researcher must be fluent in many disciplines and thrive on collaboration. Only in this way we can increase the health span and ultimately quality of life will be improved.
