Biomedical Research in Gynaecology

The Biomedical Research Group in Gynaecology is a multidisciplinary team made up of clinical specialists in gynaecology and pathology and basic and translational researchers. Our research is clearly translational. Although we take into account the obvious importance of understanding the mechanism at the cellular and molecular level and try to incorporate it into our research, our research is always focused on having a direct applicability to patients and their clinical benefit. On our way to transferring scientific results to clinical practice, we promote innovation and entrepreneurship.

Our group comprises four main research groups, which are closely connected: The clinical research group devoted mainly to clinical projects in all gynaecological cancers; and three translational research groups dedicated to ovarian cancer; endometrial cancer and endometriosis; diseases of the lower female genital tract.

On World Cancer Research Day, we highlight research aimed at improving treatments for both pediatric and adult cancers through innovative techniques.

From 6th to 7th March, more than 60 European researchers have shared the advances in translational research in endometrial cancer

On January 24, a session was held to explain what these three-dimensional models are and what advantages they have, as well as to review some of their applications in research.
