CNIO Friends

The ‛CNIO Friends’ initiative, launched in November of 2014, was designed to promote individual philanthropy and micro-sponsorship as a source of funds for the Centre, as well as to bring the CNIO closer to society.

Thanks to these funds, we have created a Postdoctoral Contract Programme that offers doctors, of all nationalities, the opportunity to carry out a postdoctoral stay at the CNIO.
