The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: The Two Cultures Observatory is a multidisciplinary research group made up of science communication researchers. Its main objective is to analyse the treatment of science in the media from the point of view of two opposing visions in society: the scientific and the humanistic. The Two Cultures Observatory was set up by the team of the journal Mètode, with the aim of uniting the practice of science communication with the study and reflection on it. The journal Mètode, a quarterly publication edited by the Universitat de València and directed by the journalist and biologist Martí Domínguez, was born in 1992 with the aim of bringing science to society, encouraging debate and critical reflection on current scientific issues.
