The Advanced Therapies Platform at
Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona Children’s Hospital
is a state-of-the-art infrastructure dedicated to the development and manufacturing of Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs), with a strong focus on pediatric applications.
The Platform spans over
1,280 m², including ATMP research and development areas, GMP manufacturing and cryopreservation facilities, and administrative spaces. The manufacturing area includes
four certified GMP cleanrooms
and is focused on the production of cell and gene therapies such as CAR‑T and dendritic cells, as well as the manufacturing of
lentiviral vectors (LVV). The Platform collaborates with both academic institutions and pharmaceutical companies at national and international levels.
The Advanced Therapies Platform is part of leading national and international networks specialized in ATMPs and drives cutting‑edge research and manufacturing projects. It brings together a
multidisciplinary team
of biologists, biotechnologists, physicians, pharmacists, technicians and researchers, ensuring a highly stimulating, comprehensive and collaborative work environment.
Our mission is to transform research into
real therapies that save lives. If you are looking for a role where your technical expertise has a direct and tangible impact on patient health, this is your place.
