With the development of Public Health and the need for medicines and other products that respond to and are directly linked to the country's health problems, the Scientific Centers and the National Coordinating Center for Clinical Trials were established. This unique institution in Cuba is responsible for the coordination, planning, execution, data management, statistical processing, and preparation of the final report of clinical trials derived from biotechnological productions and the medical-pharmaceutical industry.
The master's program aims to develop students' capacities for research and innovation, as well as for carrying out teaching activities so that they can face new challenges in accordance with the needs of the economic, social, and cultural development of each country. It responds to the need to increase knowledge about clinical research, since from a social point of view, the registration and therapeutic, diagnostic, or prophylactic use of medicines, medical equipment, diagnostic media, reagents, among other substances, are required to meet social needs.
The master's program has a broad profile, and all professional personnel linked to clinical trial activity can enter it: medical specialists, graduates in biomedical or other specialties that are related to the clinical trial process, as well as graduates in health technology, among others.
The teaching process takes place in a blended learning format at the National Coordinating Center for Clinical Trials (CENCEC).
Duration: 2 years.
