ORTIZ LEFORT, Verónica. Particularidades institucionales en la formación y desarrollo de investigadores universitarios: algunas experiencias de sus principales actores. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2011, vol.40, n.158, pp.79-90. ISSN 0185-2760.

One of the key elements in understanding research training processes is the institutional environment in which researchers are trained and subsequently develop their professional life. The efficiency of a researcher also depends on certain structural and political foundations that underline all the tasks they carry out. The objective of this article is to attempt to further the understanding as to how these conditions operate and what their main impact on research training and development is.
