The author describes the strategy followed in the Higher Institute of Medical Sciences of Havana for manpower training in basic biomedical sciences. This strategy is based on the Government's general policy for scientific development, and has resulted in the establishment of a network of centers of higher education and research institutes employing more than 3,800 professional and technical staff. Four-year specialization courses have been devised for physicians and dentists, and master's programs for which nonmedical professionals may apply. A system for the obtaining of scientific degrees has been structured together with an extensive program of graduate courses and training. The author comments on the excellent results obtained from the planned, efficient use of bilateral agreements with institutions in other countries and of the possibilities for training and qualification of specialists, the experience in which has already been offered to less developed countries.
