The Group of Radio Astronomy of the University of Valencia (GRAUV) was born with the arrival of Jon Marcaide as Full Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics in 1991. The group is a re-start, continuation, and extension of the VLBI group he built up at the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA), CSIC, in Granada, where he served from 1986 to 1991. The Group of Radio Astronomy was first part of the Department of Applied Mathematics and Astronomy and since 1995, date of the creation of the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, it belongs to the latter. Eduardo Ros and Miguel Ángel Pérez-Torres joined the group as graduate students in 1993 and early 1996, respectively. Ros completed his PhD. in November 1997 and Pérez-Torres in November 1999. José Carlos Guirado returned to the group as post-doctoral member after his postdoctoral stay at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, NASA. Guirado obtained a position of Associate Professor of the University of Valencia in the area of Astronomy and Astrophysics in 2001. After some years as staff member at the MPIfR (Bonn, Germany), Dr. Ros is at the present time, Associate Professor of the University of Valencia aswell. Iván Martí Vidal joined the group in 2004, obtaining his PhD. in 2008. Today, he has a fellowship from the von Humboldt foundation. Sergio Jiménez-Monferrer and Belén Arroyo-Torres joined the group in July 2007 and December 2010 respectively, as graduate students, both with a FPI scholarships. The group (that conceptually includes members who remained in the IAA or went to other institutions, as the University of Granada) intensely collaborates with investigators of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (Cambridge, MA, USA), Max Planck Institut für Radioastronomie (Bonn, Germany), Istituto di Radioastronomia (Bologna, Italy), Boston University (Boston, MA, USA), National Radio Astronomy Observatory (Socorro, NM, USA), Jodrell Bank (Manchester, United Kingdom), Jet Propulsion Laboratory (Pasadena, CA, USA), etc.
