CaixaResearch boosts health research to promote social progress.

We support excellent research in health and biomedicine carried out by researchers and physicians in Spain and Portugal, stimulating innovation and the transfer of knowledge in new treatments and solutions for patients. We also promote the dissemination of the results to the entire society.

We promote the generation of new knowledge in the areas of the most serious and widespread diseases: infectious, oncological, cardiovascular and neurological diseases, and we promote the improvement of medical and clinical practice, without forgetting support to basic research.
