CNIC; 2016http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12105/6460A research center, like any other institution, needs to rejuvenate its internal organization as it matures. One of the CNIC’s great strengths is its promotion of open and fluid interactions between clinical and basic researchers. To ensure that this flexibility continues and deepens, at the beginning of 2015 the Center dispensed with the old linear organization into research departments. In its place, CNIC research is now coordinated by two research directors, Borja Ibañez directing Clinical Research and Vicente Andrés Basic Research. Within this framework, research is broadly organized into three Research Areas (Vascular Pathophysiology, Myocardial Pathophysiology, and Cell & Developmental Biology), each bringing groups with a more clinical focus together with others oriented more toward basic research. The goal of this reorganization is to potentiate translational interactions between researchers with complementary skills and knowhow.
