International

The mission of INCLIVA’s International Projects Unit (UPI) is to promote the internationalisation of health research in the different areas of the Hospital Clínico Universitario de València, its health department, as well as various research groups of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Valencia and the Carlos Simon Foundation. To this end, the UPI INCLIVA supports research staff in their participation in European and international R&D&I funding programmes and comprehensively manages the projects obtained.
