During the meeting, the SAB members held several sessions with the IPHES-CERCA management, the head of research, the general manager and other area coordinators of the institute, with the aim of analysing the main results achieved in recent years and assessing the strategic lines for the future.

The visit concluded with a tour of the institute’s facilities and laboratories, where the members of the Board had the opportunity to learn first-hand about the scientific infrastructures and the research carried out by the IPHES-CERCA team.
