In an Open Peer Commentary published in response to a Target Article in The American Journal of Bioethics, a group of IBHH authors suggest that translational science needs to focus on social transformation in order to achieve its most aspirational goals and justice-oriented outcomes. This publication was supported through IBHH's longstanding collaboration with the UTMB Institute for Translational Sciences (ITS). The full citation is: Molldrem, Stephen, Emma Tumilty, Jacob D.
