Abstract

When in 2000 the university did me the honor of appointing me Rector of this institution, I made the purpose that I then shared with my partner Dr. Idalia Valerio, to establish a basic research process important within the university thinking, especially at the beginning fundamental that a university without research is not a university conceptually speaking. Although the training of professionals quality has always been the goal since its formation as a School of Medical Sciences, lacked research, unquestionable seal of quality academic Well, that's where Dr. Valerio and I started, aprons to the waist, hands in the lavatory to prepare tubes, petri dishes, plates, coverslips, etc., to start producing some kind of research in the UCIMED. In those moments, I must confess, it was pretty hard the start since even the Administrative Board of the time when This process began, obviously not much was believed in the model of do basic research in the UCIMED; inclusive, why not say it, It was even suggested that what we were trying had some fun. In spite of everything we started approximately before 2000 in together with the University of Costa Rica and specifically with Dr. Gustavo Gutiérrez who had a project related to a study genetic in monkeys of this country. Although he was developing this project already I had started at the UCR, when I assumed the Rectory, we transferred it in part to this university, for which even the administration gave him the financial support to move forward in it.
