The project is the continuation of 'CABCOS' project, financed within the First Call for Proposals, with the focus on investment in research and development facilities that will not only enable relevant scientific research but which will also form the basis for keeping the highly-educated work force in the region, as well as for attracting new researchers from other areas. The research infrastructure will enable basic research in such fields as cancer research and regenerative medicine, but it will also be an opportunity for closer cooperation with the biotechnological and pharmaceutical industry in the region.
