Institutions in and around the Can Ruti Campus have come together to develop Innomed, a programme aimed at sharing skills, knowledge, and resources to boost innovation. The initiative has recently received support from the ITEMAS platform.
In 2023, the IGTP has continued to make significant strides in its mission. Here, we review the year's top news stories, reflecting the persistent drive and collaborative spirit that underpin this institution.
The event took place at CosmoCaixa Barcelona and featured contributions from health professionals, institutions, and entities that have been collaborating closely with the centre for many years.
Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera provides these awards, supporting and enhancing the careers of young talents with both its own resources and contributions from the ICS Gerència Territorial Metropolitana Nord.
The IGTP Retreat consolidates as a nexus of the research carried out at the Can Ruti Campus. This year the event has focused on ageing and a patient-centred model of care.
A research team, led by Dr. Conxi Lázaro, from IDIBELL and ICO, and Dr. Eduard Serra, from IGTP, has published in the journal Molecular Oncology the expansion of a precision medicine platform to analyse and improve treatments for malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours.
A collaborative document outlining new guidelines for the isolation and characterisation of extracellular vesicles in parasitic disease research has been published in the Journal of Extracellular Biology. A research group from IGTP and ISGlobal contributed to the study, which could enhance our understanding of host-parasite interactions and advance early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of parasite-caused diseases.
Researchers from IGTP have discovered that administering human apotransferrin to mice models affected by intracerebral haemorrhage can mitigate the damaging effects of this severe type of stroke. This finding highlights the promising role of apotransferrin as a pre-hospital and pre-triage frontline treatment for all stroke patients. The study has been published in the journal Antioxidants.
The Can Ruti Campus and the healthcare and research teams of the different institutions that comprise it continue to prove, once again this year, to be a relevant node on a global scale in terms of scientific production and progress.
