The Barcelonaβeta Brain Research Center (BBRC) is a research center dedicated to the prevention of Alzheimer's disease and the study of cognitive functions affected in healthy and pathological aging. It was created in 2012 by the Pasqual Maragall Foundation, with the support of the Pompeu Fabra University.
The mission of the BBRC is to provide innovative solutions to decipher and prevent biological changes and cognitive dysfunction associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Due to the aging of the world population, these diseases constitute a global challenge, as dementia could reach epidemic levels by 2050, affecting more than 150 million people if no effective prevention methods are found.
The BBRC received the HR Excellence in Research award (HRS4R) granted by the European Commission, recognizing its adherence to the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Research Staff. The center offers a stimulating and supportive working environment aligned with these principles, fostering a transparent, attractive, and open ecosystem at an international level.
Pasqual Maragall Foundation, Pompeu Fabra University, and “la Caixa” Foundation are permanent members of the BBRC Board. The center is located in the Ciutadella Campus of Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, inaugurated in 2016. It boasts excellent technical facilities, including a 3T MRI scanner dedicated to research, and spaces for clinical trials and EEG. State-of-the-art scientific facilities, effective management, and ongoing peer-review evaluations underpin BBRC’s commitment to world-class research.
BBRC is part of the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park (PRBB), a multidisciplinary research facility hosting institutions like the Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM), and others, fostering collaborative and translational research in a stimulating international environment.
