ORGANIZATION

The Permanent Commission is formed by the Vice-president of the Board of Trus-

tees (General Deputy Director of Cooperative Research Networks and Centres), the
Scientific Director, four committee members representing the consortium institutions,

and the General Manager, acting as the Secretary. The Permanent Commission some-

times meets to make those decisions which, given their nature, cannot wait to be ap-
proved by the Board of Trustees. The Permanent Commission members in 2013 were:

• Instituto de Salud Carlos III.

• Centro de Medicina Regenerativa de Barcelona.

• Instituto de Bioingeniería de Cataluña.

• Universidad de Valencia.

• Universidad de Valladolid.

From the scientific point of view, the organisational structure is based on the member
research groups, Research Programmes and Horizontal Programmes, with a coordina-

tor for each Programme that is a Steering Committee member. Scientific decisions are

made by the Scientific Director, counseled by the Steering Committee and the Scien-
tific Advisory Board.

The Steering Committee, chaired by the Scientific Director comprises programme

coordinators and the Managing Director.
