Partnership with Professor. Claudia Regina Fernandes, Professor of the Course of Medicine, University of Fortaleza (UNIFOR), former student of the program in the research project:"Using the international normatized ratio as an indicator of transfusion of fresh frozen plasma in orthotopic liver transplantation" a (student David Marinho) .

A positive aspect of the program has been the involvement of the Professors in meeting the goal of the University of São Paulo and CAPES of increased partnership with research groups foreign institutions with proven excellence in research. The result was a significant increase in international students and faculty members mobility which began in the previous three years. Partnerships with foreign universities researchers generated joint publications, reception of visiting professors and the mobility of students and and staff members.

The growing number of partnerships with foreign university researchers generated joint publications and reception of visiting professors. Among the publications generated in 2013, 05 (14.7%) originate from researches carried out in conjunction with research institutions abroad; and in 2014 there were 03 articles with participation of foreign researchers and in 2015 there were 10 articles (29,4%).

Concerning specifically the  student mobility sense, 07 students did internships with institutional scholarship or doctoral split-site PhD at partner institutions abroad in the period from 2011 to 2014, and 03 in 2011 (CAPES / ESDP), 01 in 2012 ( CAPES / PDSE), 02 in 2013 (PRPG / USP) and 01 in 2014 (FAPESP). In the undergraduate area CRINT / USP has approved, since 2014, the International Student Mobility Exchange Program in which the Anesthesiology Department of USP received students in coming medicine at the University of Bristol, England Exchange Program.

The institutional exchanges also enabled for teacher mobility, and a permanent teacher (HAA) did postdoctoral in foreign institution in 2010, and in 2015 the MJCC teacher also held post-doctoral training in foreign institutions.There was also .the international reception of visiting teachers and permanent teachers visits the program to institutions abroad
