OUR VALUE CREATION | Intellectual capital
We are the lead sponsor
of the D'Or
Institute for Research and Education
(IDOR), a non-profit organization intended
to contribute to the evolution of science,
in order to improve human life. Therefore,
it combines cutting-edge research,
professional qualification and technological
development in the healthcare field.
Founded in the city of Rio de Janeiro,
in 2021, IDOR brought important
contributions to the Brazilian and
international public health systems, e.g.,
understanding the role that the Zika virus
plays in malformations of the nervous
system and in research to fight the
Covid-19 pandemic.
IDOR's first research fields were
neuroscience - which is until today one
of the highlights of the Institute -, plus
the intensive care and internal medicine.
Over the years, other fields such as
pediatrics, oncology, cardiology, pathology
and hematology gained more room at
IDOR. The Institute currently relies on a
diversified team of scientists, who perform
translational research, i.e., they corelate
information obtained in the labs with
clinical data referring to patient care.
The excellence of IDOR's research makes
possible several international partnerships
and hundreds of publications in leading
scientific journals. Moreover, the Institute
also has significantly contributed to
preparing health care professionals in
different stages of education, including
undergraduate and graduate programs,
medical and multi-professional residency
programs, upgrades and technical trainings,
activities which enabled the creation of
IDOR's Medical Science College in 2017.
Together with the expansion of its
operational fronts, IDOR has also been also
expanding its geographic reach. In Rio de
Janeiro (RJ), in addition to the headquarters
in Botafogo, IDOR has a wide space at the
Hospital Gloria D'Or dedicated to clinical
research. Additionally, it has 2 units in São
Paulo (SP), Salvador (BA) and Brasília
(Federal District), which operate in the fields
of research, education and innovation, in an
integrated fashion. IDOR's research reaches
other Brazilian capital cities, leveraging Rede
D'Or São Luiz's structure in this process.
More than
100 researchers
comprising IDOR's team have
directly contributed to scientific
advancements in Brazil.
More than m
300 articles
were published in several
international science journals in 2021,
as the result of our researchers' and
employees' efforts. Almost 110 of
them were related to Covid-19.
