DIATRAIN Project
The DIAbetes Trans-national Research Advancement for INvestigators (DIATRAIN) is an institutional mobility programme promoted by CIBERDEM since 2011
It is included under the FP7-People Co-funding of Regional, National and International Programme (FP7- People-2010-COFUND) of the European Commission . The objective of DIATRAIN is to provide outstanding experienced researchers with unique career development opportunities .
The DIATRAIN consists of two mobility programmes, the external Outgoing Mobility Programme (COMP) and the internal Incoming Mobility Programme (CIMP) . Both programmes offer postdoctoral fellowships aimed at promoting the mobility of experienced researchers from and to CIBERDEM consortium research institutions .
International researchers will be able to approach any of the available research CIBERDEM groups through the CIMP mobility programme, while the COMP mobility programme will be used by CIBERDEM staff members to develop their research careers abroad .
The following has been granted throughout the DIATRAIN programme:
• 2-year CIMP aid was granted for the following researchers: Anthony Beucher (Group – Jorge Ferrer) Itzorzte Santin (Group – Luis Castaño) Alicia García (Group – Ramon Gomis)

Joint Programming Initiative – HDHL
CIBERDEM participates in the Joint Programming Initiative Healthy Diet Healthy Life (HDHL) of the European Commission . The objective of this JPI is to bring together different researchers from different European countries to share their vision and create a common strategy concerning social challenges in the field of nutrition, food and health, which would be very difficult for these countries to deal with alone .
CIBERDEM participates in the JPI through two actions: DEDIPAC (Determinants of Diet and Physical Activity) and ENPADASI (European Nutritional Phenotype Assessment and Data Sharing Initiative) . Several CIBERDEM groups collaborate in the European consortiums on healthy diet and health .
