This week, the research support platforms of the Sant Pau Research Institute opened their doors to researchers and management staff in an initiative aimed at fostering collaboration and promoting the dissemination of the services they offer.
The main objectives of the platforms include facilitating access to high-level techniques and technologies that may not be accessible to individual groups and providing services at a reduced cost for the optimization of both human and equipment resources, as well as providing support to researchers with optimized workflows and methods.
During the visiting sessions, participants had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the facilities and address questions with the expert and specialized staff of each platform.
Furthermore, technical and methodological advice was provided to the professionals who attended the visits, allowing them to closely explore the various resources offered by the platforms to successfully carry out their projects.
This initiative not only enabled direct interaction with the research infrastructure but also fostered the creation of an environment conducive to collaboration among members of the scientific community and closer engagement with all management staff at the Research Institute.
Sant Pau currently has eleven research support platforms:
