VEITIA ROVIROSA, Zucell A et al. Looking at the interdisciplinary integration of Ophthalmology in Cuba. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.

Since the triumph of the Revolution, the training of professionals in Cuba has had an important social-humanistic component. Social development and human well-being calls for sustained efforts to increase knowledge, to develop science and technology and to put them at the service of the vast masses. The Cuban Revolution has not only made a remarkable effort to develop knowledge, education and culture, but also has generously shared their progress with others peoples in need. The healthcare field is probably the best example of that universally projected humanistic vocation. One of the major tasks in this field was the "Miracle Mission" which was born at the initiative of Fidel Castro and Hugo Chávez in the context of the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas. This led to the integration and interaction of various disciplines based on the provision of scientific and technical service where Ophthalmology played a leading role in subspecialties. This process contributed in a general way to the systematic integration of a series of discipline contents and methods, to better understanding of the realities, as well as to enrichment of interdisciplinary research.

Palabras clave : interdisciplinary integration; Miracle Mission.
