2nd edition of the Jesús Serra Foundation accompaniment programme to provide advice to new staff at IRBLleida

The Fundació Jesús Serra renews its programme

The Jesús Serra Foundation, of Grupo Catalana Occidente, and the Institut de Recerca Biomèdica de Lleida Fundació Dr. Pifarré (IRBLleida) have joined forces to present the second edition of a programme to accompany scientific researchers in the preparation of health research projects. This initiative is presented within the framework of the call for Strategic Health Action by the Instituto Carlos III. The Jesús Serra Foundation accompaniment programme provides necessary advice to researchers, mainly early-career researchers who generally do not have their own funding, in order to present solid projects in all areas, including aspects of financing and communication. This is intended to maximise the chances of success in the call for these professionals to obtain the resources necessary to continue their projects or start new lines of research.

As part of the Jesús Serra Foundation's desire to support research, especially by young scientists, and always with a view to development and training, Lanace has created this union between the two entities with the aim of strengthening all those sections that are peripheral but important to projects with a solid scientific basis and with the possibility of being financed. This project is part of the Jesús Serra Foundation's commitment to supporting research, especially by young scientists, and always with a view to development and training.

The programme is coordinated from the pre-project area of IRBLleida, managed by Serafí Cambray and Núria Bahí, with the participation of Irene Rosell and Judith Muñoz from the post-project area, and with Meritxell Soria from the communication area. Together they form a multidisciplinary team which aims to ensure that these groups of emerging and young scientists improve the quality of their proposals. The programme is divided into 5 modules, so that, alongside giving focused support to new groups, more experienced professionals can also receive support in specific areas.
