The Biobanc IDIBELL-HUB-ICO has held its first open day to bring its biological sample management services closer to researchers at the Bellvitge Health Campus.

The initiative allowed campus professionals to learn firsthand about the platform's operations, from sample processing and storage to quality control systems. This resource is essential for projects in fields such as oncology, neurology, cardiology, and rare diseases.
During the meeting, attendees were able to explore new avenues for collaboration and advisory support. IDIBELL's goal is to promote the use of these resources in biomedical research, facilitating access to both national and international collections.
This action is part of a broader strategy by the Bellvitge Health Campus to open its support units to the scientific community. The institution, founded in 2004, has over 1,500 professionals distributed across 73 research groups.
