The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Data related to research groups featured in various information dissemination channels shall not, under any circumstances, imply a statement or commitment regarding the employment or academic affiliation of individuals associated with the Universitat de València.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: Multidisciplinary biomedical research group established in 1998 within the EPIGEM (Genetic and Molecular Epidemiology) Research Unit, recognised at the Universitat de València. This group was recognised by the Valencian Government in 2000 and again by the Valencian Government as a group of excellence in 2004. Since then, it has participated in research on genetic and environmental risk factors in the aetiology of complex diseases, mainly cardiovascular diseases and their risk factors including obesity, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, etc. Since 2003 it has been part of the PREDIMED study and is currently part of the PREDIMED PLUS study. Since 2006 it has been part of the CIBER Physiopathology of Obesity and Nutrition. The group has more than 350 publications in scientific journals. It has participated in more than 30 public and private research projects and is a pioneering group in Nutritional Genomics.
