2024 call for grants to intensify research activity for healthcare professionals at the Puerta de Hierro – Segovia de Arana Health Research Institute

The Community of Madrid, through the Regional Ministry of Health and SERMAS, supports the promotion of biomedical research via a collaboration agreement signed on 16 June 2017. The purpose of the agreement is joint collaboration for the complete development and coordination of a research activity intensification programme in order to enable healthcare professionals of SERMAS in the Community of Madrid to participate in research tasks across the various active priority research lines of interest to the Community of Madrid.

Based on this, a continuous line of research intensification is established, consisting of the Foundation providing funds to the hospital for the potential recruitment of healthcare professionals to replace others selected through an evaluation process, so that the latter can dedicate a percentage of their clinical time to research tasks.
