Ankle fractures are the third most frequent cause of total fractures and generate functional alterations in the short and long term. Ankle fractures are the third most frequent cause of fractures in all ages. Surgical treatment and the period of immobilization generate important functional alterations in the short and long term such as pain, […]
The Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) has opened the call for expressions of interest for the identification of people willing to collaborate with the ISCIII in the scientific evaluation of different biomedical and health research calls, such as those related to the Acción Estratégica en Salud (AES) or other external calls that the Institute […]
This new equipment expands the possibilities of identification and isolation of cellular and subcellular populations in a more precise way for use in biomedical research projects. IDIVAL already has a new CELL SEPARATOR (SORTER) in operation with greater functionalities, available both for IDIVAL researchers and external users.
