IDIVAL participates in the European Researchers’ Night with the stand “Moving towards personalised medicine”.

Next Friday, 29 September, from 17:00 hours, IDIVAL (Valdecilla Health Research Institute) will be present at the European Researchers’ Night, which will be held in Plaza Pombo in Santander. This scientific dissemination event, organised by the University of Cantabria, will bring together more than 100 researchers from various institutions to bring science closer to society in a dynamic and accessible way.

IDIVAL will have more than 30 researchers at stand 21, entitled ‘Moving towards personalised medicine’, where visitors will be able to learn first-hand about the work in different fields of health and science. The research groups that will participate are:

• Cohorte Cantabria: ‘Be part of health research’, with studies on the population and its impact on personalised medicine.
• Cardiology research group: ‘Discover how your heart works’, with information on the mechanisms and technologies that study cardiovascular health.
• Mental illness research group: ‘Discover how your brain reacts to different stimuli’, exploring the brain and its responses.

• Cell signalling and therapeutic targets in cancer (IDIVAL) and Optics (UC): ‘Is it or is it not cancer? The answer is in the light’, showing how optics can improve oncological diagnoses.

This event, with free admission, is an excellent opportunity to discover the advances in personalised medicine and science, and how they impact on people’s lives. Don’t miss it!
