At the IGTP TODAY
Several research groups at teh IGTP are applying their experience and knowledge to fin against coronavirus and COVID-19. None of this would be possible alone, research is a long term activity which needs multiple players collaborating and we need your help.
During the coming days many girls and boys are feeding the "tió" and leaving lists of wishes for Santa Claus or the Magic Kings - so we suggest two gifts that will also raise money to help others.
On Friday 8 November the first of the series of popular science talks organized by the Friends of Can Ruti (Amics de Can Ruti) took place in the Joan Coromines Library in Masnou and the Sant Andreu Library in Llavaneres. This is the second series of informative talks and once again they are inspired by the topic of this year's TV3 Marathon, which is rare diseases. Professionals from the IGTP and the Germans Trias Hospital are taking part.
Researchers from the research project "Fats and Cancer" took part in the 32nd Cabrils Gastronomy Fair in August. The project is a collaboration between professionals from the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) and the Germans Trias Pujol Hospital and Research Institute and will educate and find funding through the fundraising organization "Amics de Can Ruti" (the Friends of Can Ruti). The aim is to raise awareness about the need for new horizons in cancer research and for cancer patients and the connection between the metabolism of fats in the body and the appearance and evolution of cancer.
