At the IGTP TODAY
The 2025 call for grants has funded 15 projects. One of them, led by the Fundació Lluita contra les Infeccions and involving the participation of IGTP, is called SuperCAP and focuses on improving the quality of life of people affected by long COVID.
On 11 December, IGTP celebrated its 30th anniversary with an institutional and Christmas event that brought together professionals from across the Institute in a space for recognition, remembrance, and looking ahead to the future.
The III CARE Annual Meeting, held on 5 December at BCIN, brought together the cancer research community of the Can Ruti Campus for a day focused on scientific dialogue, interdisciplinarity and future strategy.
The closing event celebrated on 17 November highlighted the work carried out and strengthened the commitment to maintain and expand the synergies created within the framework of the Plan. IGTP has contributed to several collaborative projects, focused on type 2 diabetes, breast cancer and medical databases.
At the Campus Can Ruti Core Facilities Infoday, the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute and the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute showcased their scientific services and the support they can offer to research conducted both on the campus and externally. The event also featured the presentation of the new IGTP-IJC Joint Flow Cytometry Unit, which has one of the most advanced infrastructures in the EU, as well as the new IJC's Translational-PATH2CURE hub, which aims to accelerate the translation of scientific discoveries into treatments for patients.
The Talents Grants for the 2024 and 2025 editions have been granted by the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera, supporting healthcare professionals in developing research projects that will lead to their doctoral theses. This initiative, originally created through a collaboration with the Research Institute and Hospital Germans Trias i Pujol, now also includes Hospital Clínic Barcelona, the Vall d'Hebron Institute of Oncology and Hospital de Bellvitge.
The conference has been a meeting point and an opportunity to share strategies, knowledge and innovative projects that contribute to improving the health and quality of life of people affected by cancer. Pere Torán and Federico Fondelli, researchers affiliated with IGTP, have been recognised in the 2025 Research Awards.

The event gathered more than 200 researchers, reviewing the Institute's scientific trajectory and looking ahead to the future of research and innovation at the Can Ruti Campus.
The Institute has taken part in BIOSPAIN 2025, the leading biotechnology event in southern Europe, with the aim of strengthening its knowledge and technology transfer strategy, showcasing its innovation capabilities, and fostering new collaborations with companies, investors, and stakeholders across the biomedical ecosystem.
On 18 September, around thirty people involved in the Innomed program visited the Werfen facilities in Lliçà d'Amunt (the Immunoassay Technology Center). The meeting provided an opportunity to learn about the company's strategic areas and to establish contacts for exploring possible collaborations.
