  • The financial contribution from Sabadell Seguros has enabled the hiring of specialized personnel to launch the laboratory.
  • Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, highly precise technique that uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain.
  • The technological equipment of the Neurophysiology Laboratory will be funded by the Reina Sofía Foundation.

Madrid, October 6, 2025. The CIEN Foundation (Center for Research on Neurodegenerative Diseases) will launch in the coming months a new and innovative Neurophysiology Laboratory, which will strengthen its research capacity in the study of neurodegenerative diseases.

This new facility has been made possible thanks to the financial support of Sabadell Seguros, which, through the signing of a €60,000 agreement, has enabled the hiring of the specialized personnel required to begin the laboratory’s activities.

The laboratory will incorporate advanced techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, a non-invasive and highly precise tool that uses magnetic fields to activate specific brain areas. This technique is key to researching the neuronal mechanisms involved in various neurodegenerative disorders.

Meanwhile, the technological infrastructure of the laboratory will be funded by the Reina Sofía Foundation, as part of its ongoing commitment to scientific research and development in the field of neurodegenerative diseases. Through this joint initiative, both organizations reaffirm their support for the CIEN Foundation’s mission to develop innovative solutions to improve the lives of people affected by these diseases.

With this collaboration, CIEN and Sabadell Seguros strengthen their shared commitment to cutting-edge research, aiming to enhance the quality of life of individuals affected by neurodegenerative disorders.

As a complement to this announcement, we share a video interview between Bernardino Gómez Aritmendi, CEO of BanSabadell Seguros Generales, Vida y Pensiones, and Guglielmo Foffani, the new coordinator of the Neurophysiology Laboratory, where they discuss the objectives and expected impact of this project.
