Deciphering the functioning of some transcription factors in the formation of the intestine has been the objective of the team led by Professor Kim Bak Jensen, from the Novo Nordisk Foundation of Stem Cell Medicine (reNEW), in which Dr. Jordi Guiu has also participated.
Thanks to the model, the IDIBELL team detected that one of the siblings had an additional genetic variant responsible for the greater severity of the pathology. These models offer the possibility of exploring each patient’s pathology and designing an individualized approach.
The results show that patients with this disorder have abnormal genetic and epigenetic patterns, which could contribute to the development of diverse clinical manifestations, such as compromise the ability of blood cell production.
Dra. M Carolina Florian, group leader at IDIBELL, has been appointed as an ICREA Research Professor. ICREA, the Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies, offers permanent, tenured positions to the most talented and extraordinary scientists and academics to come and work in Catalonia. Over the years these positions have become a synonym for global academic excellence.
The project aims to create a collaborative network for induced pluripotency stem cells (iPS) homozygous for the most frequent HLA haplotypes generation.
The work focuses on endogenous blood stem cell rejuvenation as a possible strategy to regenerate tissues and improve the health and life expectancy of the elderly.

Researchers from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, in collaboration with Meritxell Rovira from IDIBELL, the P-CMRC, and the UB show that a recently identified molecule stimulates the formation of new insulin-producing cells in zebrafish and in mammalian tissues.
The mural is located in the CEIP Pinedo of Valencia and is a piece by the artist Marta Lapeña. This is the mural number 27 of the project with which the UPV and Las Naves are filling the Valencian educational centers with science and art, in feminine.
It begins the selection of candidates to carry out a doctoral program in Regenerative Medicine between the SZBL and the IDIBELL. The program will run mainly at SZBL and will have a minimum six months stay at IDIBELL.
