In the midst of a globalized world, the medical university has the mission of transforming society through the training of its professionals, which constitutes the backbone of the scientific-technological subsystem of each country, as well as their training in research and extension. Its social challenge is to find alternatives to help enhance social organization and a better adaptation to the changes ahead. Research, as part of the training of health professionals, helps improve learning because it allows contact with reality, is a stimulus to creative intellectual activity and develops a growing curiosity about solving problems. Therefore, this study aims to show the important role of research for the training of human resources in medical undergraduate studies and its relationship to society from its various processes.
