The results show that diet induces changes in the gut microbiota that differ between Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, and that influence levels of intestinal inflammation.

The paper describes the case of a patient in whom, years after a bone marrow transplant, two immune cell lines corrected the original genetic defect.

The funds raised will contribute to ensuring the continuity of the pediatric brain tumor research line developed by the Vall d’Hebron research teams.

Funding has been obtained for 43 projects under the calls for Health R&D&I Projects, Health Technology Development, and Independent Clinical Research

The study analyzes a new therapeutic strategy in high-risk patients that could influence future international clinical guidelines

Amb 387 procediments practicats, l’Hospital Vall d’Hebron es consolida al capdavant dels centres capacitats per realitzar trasplantaments en adults i pediàtrics.

The report, published in Nature, reveals that polyamines bind to specific domains in proteins and operate as a metabolic shield against modifications in their structure.

You can now pre-register for the Master’s Degree in Translational Biomedical Research, the Master’s in Health Innovation and Entrepreneurship, and the Master’s in Clinical Trials Management and Coordination.
