Twenty-three Dominican students will be traveling to Cuba to continue their studies in medicine. Cuban Ambassador to the DR Juan Astiasaran and Higher Education Minister Ligia Amada Melo met the students who have received the scholarships and will travel to Cuba. This is the third group of students to receive these scholarships. An agreement signed between the two countries in 1999 awards 50 to 100 annual scholarships for medical studies in Cuba. Melo explained that former students have returned to serve in the Dominican Republic with the knowledge they acquired in Cuba.
