On April 16th science students of the French School of Barcelona visited the IDIBELL to see firsthand how a biomedical research center works.

Researchers of the neurometabolic diseases group explained to students the research of a rare disease, the X-linked adrenoleukodistrophy, from basic research, to the investigation with animal models and clinical trial patients.

The students visited the laboratories, and also saw how to work with both animal models such as mice in the animal facilities and C.elegans worms at lab.

With these visits students know how the job at a center for biomedical investigation is and research may arise as a career for them.
