These hospitals carry out a full range of surgical specialties at the highest scientific, technological and humanistic level. In addition, workshops will be held at both classroom and hospital level, complemented by work sessions in small groups, offering comprehensive immersion in the field of research. You will then present your own research work, supervised by specialists.
