Postgraduate Students & Medical Professionals
INVESMIR Program
The INVESMIR Program offers medical professionals, during their specialization period as resident interns, the opportunity to
further their training through a research project in one of the CNIC’s laboratories, under the supervision of a CNIC scientist.
An important aim of the program is that participants establish contacts and collaborations in the CNIC that will support them,
after completion of their MIR specialization training, in pursuing their own research projects at their centers within the Spanish
National Health System.
