Los semilleros de investigación en la Universidad Santo Tomás se han venido configurando alrededor de la idea de que las habilidades de investigación se adquieren solo en el ejercicio y la práctica investigativa. A esto se refiere el principio que fundamenta la conformación de estos colectivos: "aprender a investigar im·estigando". Es por esto que desde el 2010, la Universidad ha hecho esfuerzos Importantes para fomentar y consolidar a los semilleros de investigación como una de las estrategias institucionales más importantes en lo que a formación investigativa se refiere.

Ontología política desde América Latina
Esta obra, que integra diversos enfoques y estéticas escriturales, es una apuesta por comprender el sentido de una ontología política desde América Latina, en la cual se reconocen y se deconstruyen los legados del pensamiento occidental, situando lo disruptivo, lo que emerge desde la “filosofía contextual andina” y el pensar latinoamericano.

Promoting Health, Preventing Disease The Economic Case
A growing body of evidence from economic studies shows areas where appropriate policies can generate health and other benefits at an affordable cost, sometimes reducing health expenditure and helping to redress health inequalities at the same time.
Distributional Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
Distributional cost-effectiveness analysis aims to help healthcare and public health organizations make fairer decisions with better outcomes. It can provide information about equity in the distribution of costs and effects - who gains, who loses, and by how much - and the trade-offs that sometimes occur between equity and efficiency. This is a practical guide to methods for quantifying the equity impacts of health programmes in high, middle, and low-income countries. The methods can be tailored to analyse different equity concerns in different decision making contexts. The handbook provides both hands-on training for postgraduate students and analysts and an accessible guide for academics, practitioners, managers, policymakers, and stakeholders. Part I is an introduction and overview for research commissioners, users, and producers. Parts II and III provide step-by-step guidance on how to simulate and evaluate distributions, with accompanying spreadsheet training exercises. Part IV concludes with discussions about how to handle uncertainty about facts and disagreement about values, and the future challenges facing this growing field. Book jacket.
