A hundred professionals from the IDIAPJGol shared, this May 31, a participative one-day event at Món Sant Benet. The IDIAPJGol Retreat was the right environment to get to know each other better, share experiences and generate opportunities that allow us to join forces, beyond research areas and territoriality.
The International Society of Pharmacovigilance (ISoP) has approved the creation of a stable group in Spain of this body dedicated to pharmacovigilance. IDIAPJGol will be one of the promoters and will be represented by researcher Felipe Villalobos.
Stays in research centers in other countries are a valuable experience for those of us dedicated to research. An opportunity to learn, to grow personally and professionally, to see other ways of working and to network with top international experts.
The doctor Rafael Azagra was recognized with the Jordi Gol y Gurina Award for his career, Dr. Enric Aragonés was awarded by CAMFiC for the best article published in the field of Family Medicine, and Dr. José María Palacín won the Josep Davins i Miralles prize for the best healthcare quality project.
Danish family doctor, professor at the University of Copenhagen and one of the leading European experts in bacterial resistance, Lars Bjerrum has recently joined the External Scientific Committee of our Institute. Seva was one of the speakers during the IDIAPJGol-ICS Primary Care Research Grant awarding ceremony, in which he discussed the international projection of the IDIAPJGol.
Once again, IDIAPJGol is an institute that is open to internationalization and that participates in projects with a cross-border impact. We are currently participating in a study on the vaccination of COVID-19 in cancer patients. The researcher behind this study is the oncologist Felippe Lazar Neto, a Brazilian from Sao Paulo who recently visited the institute to work on the data from SIDIAP. We have spoken with Felippe to find out more details about his career, study and about the work he has done here.
