The Fundació de Recerca Clínic Barcelona-Institut d’Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS) carries out excellent biomedical research and investigates the most common diseases in our society. Our mission is translational research; that is, we look to ensure that the questions that arise at the patient’s bedside find answers in the laboratory and that advances made in the laboratory are translated rapidly to the patient. 

Approximately 2,000 professionals work out at our institution. Around 100 multidisciplinary groups carry out relevant research, as demonstrated by more than 1,500 original articles published every year. IDIBAPS is one of the leading biomedical research centers in Spain with an international projection.
