The National Institute of Structural Biology and Bioimaging (INBEB) is a research network aimed at studying the molecular, cellular, and physiological bases of various diseases and their respective pathogens, focusing on a structural and functional approach from macromolecules to cells and tissues. In this way, INBEB promotes the establishment of bridges between basic research and clinical applications.
The institute consists of 20 associated laboratories (LAs), distributed across 22 research and educational institutions throughout the country. Together, these LAs bring together more than a hundred researchers, as well as postdoctoral fellows and students at the doctoral, master’s, and undergraduate levels.
