Stories from the regions: Fundación FISABIO in Comunitat Valenciana, Spain

This episode of the "Stories from the Regions" series brings us to Valencia where the funds from the ERDF Operational Programme for the Valencian Community 2014-2020 have financed a large part of the materials and equipment used to implement the COVID-19 surveillance network.

The Foundation for the Promotion of Health and Biomedical Research of Valencia Region, FISABIO, is a nonprofit scientific and healthcare entity, whose primary purpose is to encourage, to promote and to develop scientific and technical health and biomedical research in Valencia Region. Currently FISABIO continues to work on sequencing samples to control the emergence of new variants to understand whether they are more lethal, aggressive or able to overcome vaccines. The Sequencing service has a maximum capacity of 1.376 samples per week. Prior to European funding, this capacity was 192.
