espanolLa vision del gobierno cardenista y el proceso para crear el Instituto de Salubridad y Enfermedades Tropicales, considerado estrategico para la salud publica, fueron congruentes con las acciones llevadas a cabo: el Departamento de Salubridad Publica encargo al cientifico mas relevante de la epoca, Eliseo Ramirez, el diseno y seguimiento del Instituto, que una comision del Consejo Nacional de Educacion Superior y la Investigacion Cientifica reviso, aprobo y desde su inicio le confirio el caracter de investigacion con vocacion social y humanistica. El Instituto de Salubridad y Enfermedades Tropicales se convirtio en el primer organismo posrevolucionario que nacio con plazas bien remuneradas para realizar investigacion de tiempo completo en Mexico, ofreciendo servicio clinico y ensenanza y apoyando las campanas sanitarias en la prevencion y control de las enfermedades. Sin duda fue un parteaguas en la salud publica mexicana y cristalizo las expectativas de varias generaciones de medicos e investigadores en salud para tener una institucion de alto nivel. Es la mas significativa institucion de salud publica del pais, con una nueva etapa como Instituto de Diagnostico y Referencia Epidemiologicos; sin ella no se entiende la moderna salud publica de Mexico. EnglishLazaro Cardenas government vision, and the process to create the Sanitary and Tropical Diseases Institute, which is considered strategic for public health, were consistent with the actions that were carried out: the Department of Public Sanitary asked the most relevant scientist of those days, Eliseo Ramirez, to design and follow-up the Institute's project. A commission of the Higher Education and Scientific Research Council reviewed and approved the project and conferred this institution its nature of research center with social and humanistic vocation since its foundation. Sanitary and Tropical Diseases Institute became the first post-revolutionary health institution that was born with well-remunerated job positions to conduct full-time research in Mexico, offering clinical services, teaching and supporting disease prevention and control campaigns. It was with no doubt a milestone in Mexican public health and crystalized the expectations of several generations of physicians and health researchers about having a high-level institution. It is the most significant public health institution of the country, with a new phase as Institute of Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference. Without it, Mexican modern public health cannot be understood. |
