  This has eight laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment, such as a next-generation sequencer, a 3D bioprinter and the NanoSight. All of the rooms are spacious with natural lighting. In addition to these areas dedicated to experimental research, the center also has offices for master’s and doctoral students and a communal area.

• CPR - Radiopharmaceutical Production Center

  

   

  The CPR, contains the Production, Physical-Chemical Quality Control and Microbiological Quality Control Laboratories and is approximately 900 square meters. It also houses the cyclotron (a particle accelerator), in a bunker with two-meter-thick walls.

• CIM – Molecular Imaging Center.

  

  The CIM has state-of-the-art equipment that can examine every part of the body. There is magnetic resonance, computed tomography, scintigraphy, SPECT, and PET/CT machines. All of the facility was designed to ensure that patients are comfortable and well looked after.
