The first breakfast was held in 2019 in the city of Huesca, with great participation, but the pandemic paralyzed the project. Now it is recovering, with the capital of Teruel being the first municipality elected.

And they will especially focus on the latest discoveries that have been achieved in the fight against this disease and what treatments are expected to be in the future.
“It is a great opportunity to learn more about the research carried out in our Community, which has nothing to envy of that carried out in other parts of the world, and to discover the important advances that have been achieved in recent years,” explains the president of Aspanoa, Gabriel Tirado.
For his part, Óscar López, executive director of IIS Aragón, highlights that “thanks to the collaborations of entities as active as Aspanoa, the research carried out in our Autonomous Community is top-of-the-line, directly impacting its high quality and the health of tomorrow.”
