Research
We promote research to improve healthcare for women
Science is in our DNA
At the Foundation, we promote the advancement of knowledge in the field of women’s health by promoting our own research lines or those in collaboration with other entities, publishing in high-impact journals in the scientific community, developing clinical trials, awarding prizes and financial grants, supervising doctoral theses, and organising conferences and professional meetings.
Studies and clinical trials
Our team actively contributes to increasing the scientific heritage of the field through studies carried out in our Department and/or in collaboration with other research centres and groups, universities, and hospitals, both nationally and internationally. It also conducts clinical trials to improve the effectiveness of assisted reproduction techniques, prenatal diagnosis, gynaecological oncology, and breast pathology, among other areas. In the last 5 years alone, we have published more than 211 studies in high-impact journals and increased our scientific output by 60%.
Active participation in national and international forums
Our professionals hold positions of responsibility and are members of the main scientific societies in our field. They are also present at the most relevant national and inter tional forums in the sector. In addition, due to their prestige and experience, they are invited to give lectures, participate in round tables and moderate debates at numerous conferences and scientific and academic events.

The Department of Obstetrics, Gynaecology and Reproduction at Dexeus University Hospital has held a Research Chair in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (CIOG) since 1998, awarded by the Autonomous University of Barcelona. Its main objective is to propose lines of research, encourage and support the completion of doctoral theses, promote scientific publications and presentations, and ensure the excellence of all scientific output and research activities carried out by the Department.

Consultancy
For decades, bringing together different perspectives in medical care has been a working method implemented in our Department. Our team offers professional advice and assistance to both patients and medical professionals.
We are advocates of teamwork, as multidisciplinary teams are essential for the success of any diagnosis, treatment and patient care. For this reason, we believe in the importance of second medical opinions and the referral of patients from one professional to another when it comes to certain pathologies that require specific treatments.
