Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG)
The CRG is an international biomedical research institute of excellence, located in the Biomedical Research Park of Barcelona (PRBB), one of the largest biomedical research clusters in southern Europe. Research at the CRG falls into four main areas: gene regulation, stem cells and cancer; cell and developmental biology; bioinformatics and genomics; and systems biology. The centre’s other main strategic goals are: to translate basic scientific findings into benefits for health and economic value for society; to provide advanced and excellent training to our scientists; and to communicate and establish a bilateral dialogue with society.
