This is reflected in lines of research for the study of neuromuscul Research groups Spinal column research unit To achieve its aims, the group’s lines of research focus, on the one hand, on characterising and studying disorders such as adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, adult spinal column deformities, spinal tumours and fractures. It also identifies the risks in managing anaesthesia and complications surrou Research groups Bioengineering, cell therapy and surgery in congenital anomalies The group’s main research areas are the study of myelomeningocele, more commonly known as spina bifida, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia. It is also researching lip and palate fissures, amniotic band constriction, gastroschisis, cell therapy and tissue engineering. The clinical profile Research groups Maternal and foetal medicine The group has established a pioneering programme on detection of congenital heart defects and chromosome abnormalities. They are also investigating the long-term impact of an adverse environment during gestation for maternal and child health (growth restriction, preeclampsia, prematurity, breast Research groups Genetic medicine The group’s lines of research include studying different genetic pathologies such as foetal alcohol syndrome, cleft lip and cleft palate, or the role of genetic restructuring in congenital heart defects. They are also studying the genetic foundations of some heart diseases, congenital adrenal hyp Research groups Growth and development In this field, they are working on the clinical, biochemical and molecular aspects of pathologies related to development patterns, growth retardation, sexual development disorders or aspects related to childhood obesity, such as metabolic complications or therapeutic approaches. Research groups Growth factors They are developing innovative therapeutic strategies to treat HER2 positive tumours and to identify mechanisms of resistance to current treatments. Working on the characterisation of the role of premature senescence in the progression and treatment of breast cancer, and the study of the implicat Research groups Experimental Therapeutics Group We are working on developing PI3-K predictive pharmacodynamic biomarkers, as well as CDK4/6 inhibitors. Revealing new mechanisms of resistance against BRCA1/2 germline therapy in breast cancer, and establishing a preclinical model of patients with breast cancer, to explore the hypotheses based o Research groups Models of cancer therapies group Focused on designing and validating the therapeutic impact of Myc-tag peptides in vitro and in vivo; comparing and contrasting possible Myc inhibitors in murine cancer models (lung cancer, glioma, metastatic breast cancer, melanoma and multiple myeloma). And studying the effects of Myc inhibition Research groups Gene expression and cancer By studying intratumoural heterogeneity, we are working to better understand the molecular mechanisms involved in cancer stem cells/stem cells.
