From 2017, the PhD programme on TA will have a track on "Health TA" with the support of the National Institute of Public Health (Dr. José Maria Albuquerque), the Research Centre of the Central Hospital of Lisbon (Centro de Investigação do Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa Central, EPE CHLC) (Dra. Salomé Almeida), the network NOVAhealth (Prof. Pita Barros) and the CICS.NOVA research centre. Other agreements are under preparation with Champalimaud Foundation, INFARMED and the McMaster University (Canada).

The students enrolled in this track should achieve between 20 and 30 ECTS credits of coursework and/or research component leading to the dissertation in one of the collaborative universities or research centres. Each student will be supervised by advisors from both institutions, who will jointly define and supervise the PhD research project, as well as the educational curriculum. After the final PhD examination process, students will obtain a doctoral diploma with the reference to the Track awarded by FCT NOVA.
