For the first time, a RegenBell research team has generated via 3D bioprinting a patch of heart tissue that survives and beats correctly for at least one month after implantation.
Thanks to technological advances, basic research with a clinical orientation and collaboration among groups, RegenBell opens up new therapeutic avenues for cardiovascular diseases.

The results obtained in an IDIBELL study open the door to therapies based on these cells to treat the adverse effects of radiation and improve inflammatory bowel disease.

The aim of the conference was to promote interaction between the two areas in order to generate new synergies and nurture existing ones between the researchers at the Bellvitge Campus.
The event was structured around three roundtables and closed with a joint discussion in which new horizons and challenges of research in translational and regenerative medicine were explored.

After the good reception of the first edition in 2023, the second edition of the RegenBell Symposium was held this year on November 21 and 22.
The main objective of this conference is to establish a platform for discussion and ideaexchange between professionals in the subject.
Throughout all Thursday and Friday morning, 11 conferences were presented, 9 of them by guest speakers, 8 selected short talks, and 39 posters, all around stem cells and regenerative medicine.

Jordi Guiu and Gabriel Capellá will carry out their research projects in sexual and reproductive health thanks to the funds raised by La Marató 2023.

Researchers from IDIBELL and the UB identify 15 new cell populations in the pancreas.
Led by Dr. Meritxell Rovira thanks to the CRIS Program of Excellence 2023, this new study will provide a better understanding of how pancreatic cancer develops.

The cause is a change in the epigenetic pattern of the beta cells of the pancreas, which overexpress oncogenes and genes related to insulin production, thus altering their functioning. This change in pattern, a common factor in the vast majority of tumours, is due to the accumulation of different mutations in genes involved in the regulation of gene expression.

M. Carolina Florian and Alessandra Giorgetti, group leaders of the Regenerative Medicine Program at IDIBELL, are part of the organizing committee.
The congress featured more than ten national and international speakers, and 135 participants.

The ICREA Research Professor at P-CRM[C] recently demonstrated how to “hack” the immune system to slow down aging.

The scientist from P-CRM[C], IDIBELL and the University of Barcelona will lead a project aimed at identifying new early detection markers and developing personalized medicine strategies for this pathology.
The recognition granted by the CRIS Foundation against cancer aims to promote and consolidate the careers of researchers with an endowment of up to 1,250,000 euros.
In this call, grants totaling 11.4 million euros have been awarded to ensure that advances in research have a broader reach and impact the treatments received by patients.
