Organisational Structure
The CIBERESP is one of the eight thematic areas forming the Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red (CIBER), a Spanish research consortium in the field of biomedical research with great scientific po- tential, under the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) – Ministry of the Economy and Competitiveness.
The Epidemiology and Public Health area is made up of 48 research groups, keeping its independence as regards scientific management. Its organisa- tional structure is based on the research groups belonging to this and its activity revolves around the Research Programmes and Transversal Pro- grammes, with a coordinator for each Programme belonging to the Steering Committee. Scientific de- cisions are made by the Scientific Director, advised by said Steering Committee and the External Scien- tific Committee.
The Steering Committee is presided over by the Scientific Director and made up of the coordinators of the programmes and Managing Director of the CIBER.
The External Scientific Committee is a body for sci- entific support and advice, made up of relevant per- sonalities in the field of health sciences standing out for their professional or scientific careers in line with the objectives of the thematic area.
The senior administrative bodies of the CIBERESP are the Governing Body and the Permanent Commis- sion, common for all the CIBER research areas.
The Governing Body is made up of three represent- atives of the ISCIII and by an institutional represent- ative of each of the centres in the consortium. It is presided over by the Director of the ISCIII and meets every six months.
The Permanent Commission is an executive com- mittee made up of the ISCIII and 8 members of the Governing Body, who can be renewed on an annual basis.
Both the operation and the purposes of the govern- ing, support and advisory bodies are established in the statutes of the CIBER.
