The first 17 bioinformatic engineers of the country were recently introduced to the society from the municipality of La lisa in the city of Havana.  

The group includes 30 informatic engineers and the first 17 Bioinformatics in Cuba, out of 47 students of the Universidad de Ciencia Informaticas de la  La Habana, as Radio Coco reported ( UCI).

Young graduates sweared to be always connected to the future and to the Revolution, taking into account they belong to the future troops, as Fidel named them once.That was at the theater of the Centro de Estudios Avanzados de Cuba, among aplauses and and recognitions.
