The Ministry of Science and Innovation, through the Carlos III Health Institute (ISCIII), has published this Tuesday the final resolution by which 10 million euros are allocated to 34 R+D+I projects related to personalized medicine and advanced therapies.
This investment is part of the joint action between ISCIII and the Center for Technological Development and Innovation (CDTI), which may grant up to a total of 55 million euros (up to 30 million in the form of loans and 25 million in grants) to finance collaborative R&D&I projects in health, thanks to European funds from the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
