IBEC developes a software for biomarker discovering
International researchers led by Santi Marco at IBEC develop a software for biomarker discovery in samples such as urine, blood or cell extracts. AlpsNMR: An R tool for Automated spectraL Processing System for untargeted NMR-based metabolomics has been made public in the main repository for bioinformatics open software: Bioconductor
A new edition of the “100tífiques” kicks off with record participation from IBEC
February 11th is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science and, for the third year in a row, IBEC participates in the “100tífiques” event, an initiative that aims to bring science closer to schools and claim the female scientific talent.
IBEC and Oxolife start a pioneering study to treat infertility
Oxolife, the biotechnological startup focused on the development of drugs to improve female fertility, and the Bioengineering for Reproductive Health laboratory of the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), will combine two pioneering technologies for the study and treatment of infertility.
Alícia Casals against the invisibility of female scientists
The industrial and computer engineer Alícia Casals, associated researcher at IBEC and professor at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), is interviewed in “el Periódico” to talk about the merits of the female researchers and to inspire young women in their disciplines.
Researchers develop enzyme-powered micromotors based on metal-organic porous materials
In a new article published in the prestigious Journal of the American Chemical Society, researchers describe how they successfully designed and fabricated bubble-propelled enzymatic micromotors built from a highly porous metal-organic framework (MOF). These new micromotors might lead to applications for drug delivery, and adsorption of pollutants.
Mechanical forces, half of the alphabet to understand life
Xavier Trepat and international experts remind us in a piece published in the Journal Nature by science writer Amber Dance, the crucial role of physics in order to understand biological entities such cells and organs, both in health and disease. In words of Trepat: “Understanding a cell without physics is like trying to write a book with only half the letters of the alphabet”.
Art inspired by IBEC’s bioengineering hits the streets
The Wall Lab program decorates one of the exterior walls of the Hèlix building, at the Barcelona Science Park , with a work on the “nano universe”, inspired by the research carried out at IBEC.

Biomimetic systems for cell engineering Group is looking for a Senior Technician to develop a project on the impact of substrate-derived cues in the self-organization of intestinal epithelia. The contract will be within the framework of the COMIET project, whose objective is to develop biomimetic in vitro models of intestinal epithelia.
Did you know that IBEC holds an HR Excellence in Research logo that must be renewed every 3 years? Soon we will start a phase of diagnosis to define a new Action Plan and optimise the current one.
