As first author of our recent study on Long COVID, I’m proud to share key findings from our work at GCAT-IGTP, with support from IR Sant Pau and ISGlobal. We identified VEGFA as a central biomarker linked to persistent symptoms. Here’s the story! bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Lab-grown neurofibromatosis 1 tumors reveal how benign growths turn malignant
A research team from the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) has developed a new experimental model based on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) that makes it possible to reproduce in the laboratory the progression of tumors associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), from benign forms to aggressive malignant tumors.
