The CiiEM Strategic plan defined thematic areas that aim to maximize the quality and scope of the scientific output in key domains for Egas Moniz while conforming to strategic guidelines that make optimal use of the resources available. Created by the current reorganization in 2015, the thematic areas consolidated their action plans in 2016/17 and are now engaged in creating a high quality and consistent core body of knowledge and greatly improving networking among the Egas Moniz laboratories and with relevant external partners. 

The CiiEM will create in a short time a new Thematic Area in Veterinary Medicine.
