The Research Centre for Biomedical Engineering (CREB) of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), a CataloniaBio & HealthTech member, inaugurated its new facilities on 6 July with a day of conferences and visits from researchers and members of the UPC governing bodies.

Most of the research groups at the CREB have moved to the offices and laboratories on the fourth floor at the Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering. Previously, they were located in several different buildings at the university.

The CREB has more than 25 years of experience in technology transfer, holds 27 patents and 5 to out-license, and has created 5 spin-offs, including Rob Surgical.

Recently, the centre presented the WikiCREB series of videos, which explain the research they are conducting in biomedicine, deep learning, metabolomics and gamification.
