About half a million euros for research

During her speech, Chivite expressed her sincere gratitude to the person who donated his estate to the Miguel Servet Foundation for contributing “to the development of health research". "Private donations like this are an extra way of financing public biomedical research, which has increased its resources in this legislature and whose results make us all especially proud of this other heritage, knowledge, just as important as the material heritage”, she said.
