Designing, developing Research groups Translational molecular pathology The Molecular Pathology group is mainly made up of medical anatomopathologists from the hospital’s Pathological Anatomy Department. Its research surrounds cell stress models, which allow the mechanisms by which tumour cells are more resistant to factors such as hypoxia, lack of nutrients or genom Research groups Childhood Cancer and Blood Disorders Focused on childhood cancer, the group is made up of clinical and basic researchers, whose aim is to discover new therapeutic targets and develop new treatments by using animal models. Specifically, they are working on rhabdomyosarcoma and neuroblastoma, two types of high risk tumours in p Research groups Cardiovascular diseases This is one of the most comprehensive groups in the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute, and includes an Experimental Cardiology Laboratory, a Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit and the Clinical Research Unit. Thus, it works to generate knowledge about the mechanisms of heart disease, to produce new t Research groups Ophthalmology Among its lines of research are the physiopathology of diabetic retinopathy, the physiopathology and treatment of central retinal vein occlusion, as well as investigation into treatments and new approaches for retinal artery occlusion. Research groups Diabetes and metabolism The research group’s main line of research is the physiopathology of diabetic retinopathy, and approaches to this pathology through integrated biological systems. In this field, Dr. Simó, the Head of the research group, is the coordinator of the EUROCONDOR Consortium, included in the 7th Framewo Research groups CIBBIM - Nanomedicine kidney physiopathology The group is working on understanding the mechanisms involved in renal physiopathology. One of its main lines of research is the role that androgens play. Another important part of the group’s efforts is the early detection of biomarkers for kidney dysfunction, with high performance proteomic ana Research groups Molecular medical imaging The group is made up of specialists in molecular imaging, chemical and pharmaceutical specialists in the synthesis of tracers, and biomedical and physical engineers specialised in imaging treatment and tomography equipment. With this multidisciplinary team, and on the basis of medical imag Research groups Nephrology and kidney transplant The group’s research projects fall into two main areas. On the one hand, the progression of renal insufficiency, focused on the nature of kidney diseases and kidney transplant. In this area, they are also studying the recurrence of kidney disease after transplant. On the other hand, the group dea Research groups Neurovascular disorders The Neurovascular Disorders research group’s lines of research cover prevention, treatment and repair aspects, also working on the identification of biomarkers in the pathology.
