The Government of São Paulo will pay for the construction of the new Center for Clinical Research at the Faculty of Medicine at USP. The BRL 50 million project will start next year and should be delivered in 2025.
This is one of the four priority projects of the faculty and the Faculdade de Medicina Foundation (FFM), a private, non-profit entity that supports teaching, research and health care by supporting the activities of the faculty and the Hospital das Clinics.
The objective is to expand and integrate the faculty’s clinical research area, which today is decentralized, with each of its nine institutes responsible for a part.
“The new center will bring us financial sustainability, help us retain talent and support students and professionals in accessing new technologies. In addition, it will facilitate contact, exchange of information and the receipt of funds from foreign institutions”, says the director from FMUSP, Eloísa Bonfá.
Research at FMUSP increased a lot with the pandemic due to all the work carried out by HC professionals on the front line. From 2019 to 2021, the growth in publications was 35.7%.
Currently, the institution registers more than 3,000 publications per year. FMUSP is in the ranking of the best medical schools in the world. HC is the largest hospital complex in Latin America, with 2,400 beds.
