Organisational Structure
CIBERESP is one of the thematic areas forming the Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red (CIBER), a Spanish research consortium in the field of biomedical research with great scientific capacity, under the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) – Ministry of the Economy and Competitiveness. In 2016, it was made up of 8 thematic areas, which were extended to 11 in 2017.
The Epidemiology and Public Health Area has 49 research groups and one associated group, retaining
its independence as regards its scientific management. Its organisational structure is based on the research groups belonging to this and its work revolves around the Research Programmes and Transversal Programmes, with a coordinator for each Programme belonging to the Steering Committee. Scientific decisions are made by the Scientific Director, advised by the Steering Committee and the External Scientific Advisory Committee.
The senior administrative bodies of the CIBERESP are the Governing Board and the Permanent Commission, common for all the CIBER research areas. The Governing Board is made up of three representatives of the ISCIII and one institutional representative of each of the centres in the consortium.
It is presided over by the Director of the ISCIII and meets every six months. The Permanent Commission
is an executive committee made up of the ISCIII and 8 members of the Governing Board, who can be renewed annually. Both the operation and the purposes of the governing, support and advisory bodies are established in the statutes of the CIBER.
The Steering Committee is presided over by the Scientific Director and made up of the coordinators of the programmes and the CIBER manager.
