Strengthening collaboration to encourage novel research connections between scientific areas is central to the CIMCYC - María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence strategy . To encourage this, the CIMCYC has launched six novel and exciting multidisciplinary collaborative projects in Psychology and Neuroscience, which tackle frontier questions across areas.

As part of the strategic plan linked to the María de Maeztu Seal of Excellence award, the CIMCYC is recruiting six postdoctoral researchers for the implementation of six new collaborative projects between different research groups at CIMCYC

A new investigation, conducted by Aranzazu Vinas and Helena Matute of the University of Deusto, Bilbao, and Fernando Blanco of the CIMCYC at the University of Granada, highlights the dangers of incorrectly classifying patients. These dangers range from fostering the unfair distribution of healthcare resources to modifying the perceived efficacy of treatments.
