The European Evomet project, coordinated by IRB Barcelona, seeks to train future metastasis researchers to apply the knowledge generated in basic research to the search for therapeutic solutions. The objective is to leverage the development of drugs and, ultimately, have an impact on the clinical treatment given to these patients, who have the worst prognosis.<\/p>\n<p>The 13 beneficiaries of the Evomet project are: the <strong>research institutions<\/strong> IRB Barcelona, the Fundaci\u00f3 Institut d&#8217;Investigaci\u00f3 Biom\u00e8dica de Bellvitge (IDIBELL), the Research Institute of Molecular Pathology (IMP), Gustave Roussy, the Institute of Cancer Research-Royal Cancer Hospital (ICR), and the Institut d&#8217;Investigacions Biom\u00e8diques August Pi I Sunyer (IDIBAPS); the <strong>universities<\/strong> University of Lausanne, University of Cambridge, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Universite Paris-Saclay, University of Basel; and the <strong>companies<\/strong> Boehringer Ingelheim, Intomics and ChromaCure.
