Sant Joan de Déu Research Foundation (FSJD)

Sant Joan de Déu Research Foundation was created in 2002 to provide a framework for the research activity which is carried out in the biomedical and social spheres at Sant Joan de Déu Maternal and Children’s Hospital in Esplugues, at Sant Joan de Déu Healthcare Park in Sant Boi de Llobregat and in others.

Accordingly, we work jointly with centres of “Hospitaller Order of St. John of God – Aragon-San Rafael Province” to expand scientific knowledge and to improve the care given to people who suffer health problems. Moreover, we seek to achieve these ends in an integrated way within the healthcare sphere, always bearing closely in mind the persons who are ill and the members of their families. We approach our research as a participative and interdisciplinary process.
