Training Programme
Coordinator: Borja Ibáñez
The CIBERCV Training Programme seeks to train young people to become future cardiovascular
researchers in order to improve society’s cardiovascular health
To this end, the Training and Mobility Plan, coordinated by Dr Borja Ibáñez, has been designed in 2017 Some of the measures de ned as priorities that could be stressed are:
• Annual “Jordi Soler-Soler” call for contracts for young researchers
• Support for obtaining contracts for young researchers by means of the co- nancing formula
• Intra-CIBERCV mobility plan to foster short exchange visits between CIBERCV institutions (1-2 weeks)
• Extra-CIBERCV mobility plan to support CIBERCV researchers’ stays at the world’s main clinical and research centres for 3-4 months
• Organisation and support for researchers’ training by means of speci c courses and workshops
Di erent activities such as the ones listed below were already arranged through this training programme:
• CIBER training sessions in model phenotyping (27 November to 1 December 2017)
• Practical “hands-on” course on Advanced Cardiac Imaging at the Hospital Universitario de Salamanca (9-10 November 2017)
• International Symposium on Cardiovascular Regeneration and Repair (15-16 June 2017)
What is more, in the important area of scienti c dissemination and forming a critical spirit for society, in 2017 Dr Bermejo took part in the Madrid Science Week 2017
