HUMAN RESOURCES QUALIFICATION
So that a really innovative medication can be discovered, it is fundamental to have a diverse and extremely qualified workforce to carry out all the stages of the chain of innovation successfully.

With a goal of consolidating national competences in the discovery of new pharmaceutical and medications, INCT-INOFAR invests in the qualification of human resources in the different research centers associated to it.  

Scientific qualification is enhanced in all the academic levels: undergraduate, graduate, Ph.D., and post-doctorate. Through the scientific exchange promoted, INCT-INOFAR contributes not only for the qualification of new researchers, but also for the recycling and new knowledge for senior researchers.

The maintenance of renowned talent professionals in the country is also one of the goals of  INCT-INOFAR, avoiding the “Scientific Diaspora” that is so harmful for the development of Science, Technology, and Innovation in the country.

INCT-INOFAR researchers actively participate in qualification of human resources activities, through the connection to 19 Post-Graduate Programs of recognized academic merit. At the latest evaluation promoted by the Coordination of Personnel Qualification at College Level (CAPES), over half of these programs achieved the highest mark of 7 or the second highest of 6.

The innovation process in pharmaceuticals has multidisciplinary characteristics, which demands competences in several subfields in Health: Chemistry, Pharmacology, Pharmaceutical Technology, among other specific fields of science. 

For that, INCT-INOFAR has a multidisciplinary and pluri-institutional team, with research groups of the highest academic excellence, qualified by their previous results and able to carry to term all the stages of the rational discovery of new pharmaceuticals successfully.

INCT-INOFAR is made up of specialists in the areas of Chemistry, Biology, and Health Sciences. Among these we highlight Pharmacology, Toxicology, X-Ray Crystallography, Molecular Modeling, Organic Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Natural Products Chemistry, Computational Chemistry, and Organic Synthesis, among other related fields.

By promoting interdisciplinarity, INCT-INOFAR acts in the entire chain of innovation in pharmaceuticals and medications, making the current research projects advance through cooperation, aiming to achieve state of the art in pharmaceutical innovation.
