Health research initiatives in Castilla y León

Overview

The Castilla y León region has implemented several initiatives to advance health research and innovation. Initially, the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare allocated 1.6 million euros to fund 95 research projects for 2026. These projects, distributed across the region's nine provinces, focus on fields such as oncology, mental health, and cardiovascular diseases, while utilizing technologies like artificial intelligence and telemedicine.

Following this funding allocation, the region integrated its first 1,500 participants into the Cohorte IMPaCT, a long-term national health study. This project, managed by the Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red (CIBER), aims to monitor how genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors influence disease development. In Castilla y León, the study operates through nodes in Salamanca, Valladolid Oeste, and León.
