Luis Serrano, Director of the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), has celebrated the twenty-year anniversary of the research centre as a modern success story made possible by political ambition and goodwill. The comments were made today at a special symposium organised at the Parc de Recerca Biomedica de Barcelona (PRBB) to mark the CRG\u2019s twentieth anniversary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
