Promotion of an R & I network in biological chemistry for the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases

Objectives: Biological chemistry designs and synthesises chemical tools that can be used as probes for the study and rational modification of biological processes. One of the major challenges in science is to ensure that compounds designed in the laboratory act in a predictable way within living systems (cells, animal models, clinical trials), to develop new therapies and diagnostic methods. 2IQBIONEURO will articulate an R & I network in biological chemistry for the treatment of neurological diseases associated with aging by: 1.Training of researchers; 2)Development of new lines of research; 3)Establishing the technological, scientific and HR bases to turn the region into a pole of scientific excellence. Results: training: Personalised itineraries training and mobility plan in biological chemistry and neurological diseases for researchers (different phases of their professional career). Organisation of conferences with internationally renowned speakers. b) 23 publications in journals of the first decil in three years. c) New patents for the treatment and diagnosis of neurological diseases associated with ageing. d) Development of early-demand maps to promote innovative public procurement processes on research and exploitation opportunities in the area and the design of R & D-oriented missions to promote research and applied results with contracts with the biopharmaceutical sector.
