The professional activity of the biochemists of the School of Sciences is located in the biosanitary and biomedical field, a area of recognized prestige at the University of Navarra. Our School works closely with those of Medicine and Pharmacy, and other research centers of the University, such as the research center Applied Medicine (CIMA), the Clínica Universidad de Navarra (CUN) or the Center for Applied Pharmacobiology (CIFA). This has made it possible to achieve a universitycampus specialized in Experimental and Health Sciences that is unique in our country.
