Scientific research in the 21st century calls for the use of sophisticated, complex and expensive technologies, which is why IGTP has the presence of the Scientific-Technical Platforms (ICTS). The ICTS have the objective of centralizing procedures and equipment, favouring researchers' access to advanced technology, as well as offering their experience in highly complex techniques. IGTP’s ICTS serve the research groups at IGTP and the Can Ruti campus, as well as groups of public and private external origin.

The ICTS of IGTP are active members of the CERCA GINYS working group in order to optimize access to these facilities for the entire scientific and technological community, and, especially, want to demonstrate the possibility that the private business and industrial sector may also use it, and also access the services of highly qualified technical personnel.

You can learn more about the ICTS in this video of the 2024 Can Ruti Campus Core Facilities Infoday, held on 7 May and co-organised by Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute and Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute. The heads of their the platforms gave 10-minute talks on their services and equipment.
