Organisational Structure
CIBERSAM is one of the thematic areas which form the Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red (CIBER), a Spanish research consortium in the field of biomedical research with enormous scientific potential, set up under the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) – Ministry of the Economy and Competitiveness. In 2016 this was made up of 8 thematic areas, which were extended to 11 in 2017.
The CIBERSAM consists of 24 research groups belonging to institutions of different kinds: university hospitals, universities, Public Research Bodies (OPI), such as the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) itself and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), and research centres of Spain’s regional “autonomous communities”.
CIBERSAM has a large human resources team consisting of over 350 people, including a considerable staff of its own researchers and members of groups as personnel attached to the CIBERSAM. This large team is made up of basic and clinical biomedical researchers, research technicians and management staff.
As a thematic area of the CIBER, the CIBERSAM belongs to this public consortium and is thus governed
by a Governing Body and a Permanent Committee (its governing and management bodies) in which the institutions in the consortium take part. The organisational structure is made up of Scientific Management, under Dr Celso Arango, which along with the Management Committee coordinates the work done by the
6 Scientific Programmes into which CIBERSAM groups are divided. The CIBER Technical Unit provides the administrative support required for the Institution to run.
Members of the Management Committee
The Management Committee is presided over by the Scientific Director and made up of the coordinators of the programmes and manager of the CIBER.
