The Institute of Bioengineering of Catalonia took part in the 2025–2026 edition of the CCCB’s ALIA educational programme. This initiative brought around 170 secondary school students together with researchers and artists to explore the challenges facing future medicine through the lenses of bioengineering, bioethics, and artistic creation. The programme culminated in a closing ceremony held on 5 May.
On 13 May, the Institute of Bioengineering of Catalonia opened an exhibition featuring three collaborative works created through the first edition of “Open Dialogues”, a programme that brings together artists and IBEC researchers. Addressing issues such as gender bias in healthcare, the sensory translation of cellular processes and the parallels between artistic and scientific practices based on the olfactory experience, the pieces were created through a dialogue between art and science.
On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of IBEC, we are pleased to invite the entire Alumni community to a special event taking place on June 18th at 5:30 pm at the Auditori Antoni Caparrós (PCB). … Read more
