One of the goals of the Institute as a scientific research organization is the establishment of international scientific cooperation for faster integration into the world’s scientific, economic, social and cultural flows and inclusion in the European research area. There is an expressed need for the Institute to strengthen all forms of international cooperation in the field of biomedical and biotechnical sciences, which includes above all:
– exchange/mobility of Institute researchers
– developing new methods of scientific research work
– application of joint international projects
– publication of scientific papers
– organization of scientific conferences
The Institute’s researchers have intensive cooperation with numerous prominent scientists and institutions in the world. Within this, the Institute’s policy is to form joint research projects, within which it encourages the stay and exchange of its researchers in world-renowned laboratories in order to gain experience in an international framework.
