The Statistics and Bioinformatics Unit (UEB) was created in 2008 with the aim of promoting the use and development of modern statistical and bioinformatics resources on the research carried out in its environment. Currently, the Statistics and Bioinformatics Unit includes the former Biomedical Research Methodology Support Unit (USMIB) and, within the Scientific and Technical Support Area of the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute, has the mission to offer advice, services and training for clinical and biomedical research. The main objectives of the UEB are:

• Provide statistical, methodological and bioinformatics support to clinical and biomedical research, mainly in our center but also in the rest of the community.

• Contribute to the training in statistics and bioinformatics for clinical and biomedical research, through the realization of own courses and the participation in the formal training of the area of the VHIR.

• Carry out innovation and development activities in the field of statistics and bioinformatics, especially in everything that may lead to an improvement in the procedures and services provided by the Unit.
