Aguirre announces ten science institutes in next term of office
February 8, 2013
The institutes will employ 200 researchers and will be located in the region’s science and technology parks. The aim is for the institutes to work in the priority scientific fields, defined by the fourth Regional Science and Technology Plan as follows: water, energy, social sciences, applied mathematics, materials, freeware, nanotechnology, information and communication, and biomedicine.
