Legacy
What we do
We seek to continue the scientific legacy of Dr. Antoni Esteve i Subirana, with the mission of generating and transferring knowledge in pharmacology through projects such as the UB – Dr. Antoni Esteve i Subirana Chair of Research in Pharmacology, and the Research Awards.
To this end, the actions developed within each project align with one or more of the following purposes:
We generate science
We organize conferences, round tables, and meetings to create spaces for scientific debate where experts can share and contrast knowledge on relevant topics in pharmacology.
We communicate science
We develop and promote resources that support and enhance scientific practice, knowledge transfer, and scientific communication in the field of health.
These include the “Notebooks” and training courses aimed at researchers, initiatives that bring together science, journalism and communication, and activities designed to improve university curricula in the health sciences.
We promote scientific culture
We bring science closer to society through inclusive and educational activities where science and culture interact to disseminate scientific knowledge, with special attention to promote the use of scientific terminology in Catalan.
Dr. Antoni Esteve i Subirana
His entrepreneurial spirit and his vocation for pharmacology led him to create the first original specialties on the second floor of the pharmacy that his family had had for five generations.
History
