CIBERned
CIBER de Enfermedades neurodegenerativas

The Ministry of Science and Innovation promotes health research through the Carlos III Health Institute. Its actions are focused on developing its own research programmes and organisational aspects of the research structure in Spain. IDIBAPS obtains a considerable level of financial resources through its competitive tenders.
In addition to traditional initiatives such as projects financed through the Health Research Fund (FIS projects), the Ministry focuses much of its effort on strengthening National Research Networks. The CIBERs and RETICs are a new way of understanding cooperative biomedical research that has given excellent results during recent years. IDIBAPS participates in most of these virtual research structures and leads some of them. Researchers from IDIBAPS lead the following networks:
