Daniel Bravo Grants 
Particularly aimed at stimulating high-impact biomedical research in Catalonia, the Daniel Bravo Andreu Private Foundation has opened the call for applications for short stays abroad to conduct cardiovascular research.
In addition to basic and clinical research, the Daniel Bravo Grants focus special attention on cardiovascular imaging and non-invasive diagnostic techniques.
When assessing and selecting the proposals, consideration will be given to whether the impact expectations are reasonable and relevant for the researchers and their research groups. In this regard, three broad areas of impact have been defined:
Academic impact. This refers to producing knowledge that will be published in high-impact journals and/or will generate capacity for future research by providing the home institutions with direction, priorities or skills.
Clinical impact. Refers to producing knowledge that can influence clinical practice guides and/or improve medical and healthcare practice at the local level.
Social impact. Refers to producing knowledge that can influence public health policies and/or offer benefits for healthcare systems, such as enhancing efficiency or maximising resources.
The Daniel Bravo Andreu Private Foundation will award three grants to researchers (in possession of a doctorate, bachelor’s degree or equivalent) who carry out their activity in Catalonia and who wish to make short stays at leading centres in their field in North America or Europe.
2018 Call
The call will be open from 30 January to 6 March 2019, and the stay will begin between 1 May and 30 November 2019.
