Barcelona Centre for Regenerative Medicine (CMRB)
The Center for Regenerative Medicine of Barcelona (CMRB) is a scientific research center in regenerative medicine and stem cells that was created through a scientific collaboration agreement between the Department of Health of the Government of Catalonia and the Carlos III Health Institute (ISCIII) of the Ministry of Health and Consumption. Its lines of research focus on the genetic and cellular mechanisms of embryonic development and the self-renewal and differentiation of stem cells. The objective is to understand how the capacity of cells, as well as of the various animal models with the capacity to regenerate their organs, can be the basis for future regeneration therapies.
In the CMRB, the Barcelona Cellular Lines Bank (BLCB) is integrated as a functional unit. The BLCB focuses its work on the derivation, maintenance, characterization and preservation of pluripotent stem cells (embryonic and iPSC) in order to develop research activities in the area of regenerative medicine. Infrastructurally, the bank is made up of cell culture, characterization and cryobiology laboratories.
