scholarships
Since its creation in 1969, the Conchita Rábago Foundation has kept open two calls for Scholarships.
One for the training of pre-doctoral researchers at the Jiménez Díaz Foundation.
Another mobility aid aimed at the doctors of the Jiménez Díaz Foundation so that they can travel to other national and international centers to expand their training and incorporate their learning into the Institution.
