Welcome message

Dear visitor,
I am pleased to welcome you to our website. Our non-profit research and education institute was founded in 2005 by a group of scientists, who wanted to combine their knowledge, skills, and experience to design and execute biomedical research in Greece and collaborate with other scientists from around the world.

Our primary goal is to conduct original research with the highest scientific and ethical standards and participate in educational activities at a national and international level. Thank you very much for visiting our website.

Sincerely,
Matthew E. Falagas, MD, MSc, DSc
Director of AIBS
