The Centro de Investigación Biomédica Esther Koplowitz (CIBEK) will be a new building that will enable the researchers from the Institut d’Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS) to develop and fulfill their scientific potential. The development of this ambitious project will be possible thanks to the generosity of the Esther Koplowitz Foundation. The construction of this building represents the most important patronage initiative in the field of scientific research to be undertaken in Spain, and one of the most important in Europe.
