Rheumatology
The Rheumatology Research Group (GRR) is focused on translational research in immunity-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDA), mainly in the area of rheumatology. The GRR is a multidisciplinary group made up of clinical specialists, biologists, bioinformaticians and laboratory technicians. The different research lines of the GRR emphasize the use of high-performance technologies for the study at the cellular and molecular level of the immununopathology of IMIDA, mainly chronic inflammatory arthritis and autoimmune systemic diseases.
At the clinical level, we have developed lines of research in very diverse areas of rheumatology, including chronic inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthropathies), systemic autoimmune diseases (lupus, myositis, Sjögren's syndrome), the study of musculoskeletal imaging, pediatric rheumatology (juvenile idiopathic arthritis, autoimmune systemic diseases, autoinflammatory syndromes), central sensitization syndromes and the study of bone metabolism. One of the main objectives of the GRR is the coordination of basic and clinical research to accelerate the transfer of knowledge to clinical practice and thus improve the quality of life of patients.

Funded by the European Union, this project coordinated by the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR) seeks to develop more effective therapies by creating new combinations of existing drugs
The head of the Rheumatology Service at Vall d'Hebron University Hospital and of the Rheumatology research group at VHIR is a highly accomplished rheumatologist with a distinguished career in the field.
It is the first international multi-centre clinical trial to analyse the safety and effect of this treatment for an autoimmune disease.
