We are research
At the IBMCP we have been conducting research for over 25 years with a high level of innovation and dynamism, becoming a multidisciplinary centre of excellence, which has led to significant scientific advances in the field of Plant Biology, enabling the development of plants with high added value that are more productive, more resistant, more sustainable, and have higher quality and tastier fruits.
Research Groups
Interdisciplinary Research
The diverse IBMCP research program, with more than 25 research groups exploring the secrets of plants, ranges from DNA sequencing and analysis of plant development and hormonal action, to the interaction between plants and their environment.
The IBMCP research groups cover a wide range of research areas with a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach, with the firm commitment to making Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology a key tool in improving agriculture, the environment, health, and human well-being.
