Research Environment
Our group is a member of the Systems Biology programme at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), giving us excellent colleagues and access to all of the CRG’s world-class core facilities.
The city of Barcelona is a technical and biomedical hub with many research institutes, the IRB, the photonics institute, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, as well as several universities including the UPF , UB, and the UAB and a small but lively biomedical startup ecosystem. Barcelona also has a thriving makers scene, which is great for the members of our group building custom high-throughput imaging apparatus.
The CRG itself occupies the fifth and sixth floors of the biomedical research building PRBB, located on the beach a short walk from the heart of downtown Barcelona.
