Workshop on the occasion of the 10th Anniversary of GRBIO
Our research group in Biostatistics and Bioinformatics (GRBIO) is organizing the ‘Workshop on the Occasion of the 10th Anniversary of the GRBIO’, which will take place on January 30 (9:30h-20:00h) and January 31, 2025 (9:00h-14:30h) in the Sala d'Actes of the School of Mathematics and Statistics (FME) of the UPC.
The GRBIO is a consolidated research group funded by the Generalitat de Catalunya and formed by professors and PhD students from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, the Universitat of Barcelona and researchers from external research centers. It was created in 2014 to promote research in Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, both in advanced applications and in the theoretical and computational development of new methodologies. During this time, our group has grown significantly in the field of research and dissemination, consolidating our position as a reference at national and international level.
The opening ceremony, chaired by the Dean of the FME, Prof. Jordi Guàrdia, will be attended by the Vice-Rectors for Research of the UPC, Prof. Jordi Llorca and of the UB, Prof. Jordi García (UB). The closing ceremony, also chaired by Prof. Jordi Guàrdia, will be attended by the directors of the Department of Statistics (UPC), Prof. Xavier Tort, and the Department of Genetics, Microbiology and Statistics (UB), Prof. Bru Cormand.
We are delighted to count with three prominent speakers: Mª Luz Calle, from the University of Vic, Roderic Guigó from the Centre for Genomic Regulation and Geert Molenberghs from the Faculty of Medicine at KU Leuven and at Hasselt University. The workshop will include plenary talks by professors from several Spanish universities with whom the GRBIO has collaborated in recent years, oral presentations by some of our PhD students and a poster session.
The workshop will be open to participation of other researchers, who will have the opportunity to present their research in poster format.
We are pleased to announce that a Certificate of Attendance will be provided to each participant who attends the workshop.
You can expect to receive your certificate in the days following the event.

Xavier de la Cruz Montserrat
Title: TBA
Biosketch
His career revolves around the application of in silico tools to address biological questions. His Ph.D. focused on studying the protein structure principles underlying function, a topic he pursued during his stay at the NIH (1993-1997) and UCL (1997-2000). After joining ICREA, this topic became the main focus of his work (PCB, 2001-2009; IBMB-CSIC, 2009-2012). However, his interests have gradually shifted towards the study of translational problems in biomedicine. In this direction, in 2012, he joined the Vall d'Hebron Institute of Research (VHIR) to enhance the applicability of their work on the pathogenicity of genetic variants, bringing it closer to healthcare stakeholders. His efforts recently gained international recognition after his participation in the prestigious CAGI5/ENIGMA and CAGI6/ARSA contests, where his group ranked second in both competitions.
