In short

The Sleep Research Institute maintains its own line of research, directed byDr. Diego García-Borreguero and in collaboration with the international scientific community. Research allows us to apply earlier what science shows works—including cutting-edge techniques—and translate knowledge into better care for the patient.

What is it

An institute that investigates, not only treats

What distinguishes an institute from a consultation is thatgenerates knowledge. At the IIS, clinical practice and research go hand in hand: the advances we study have a direct impact on the diagnosis and treatment of our patients.

Our research team, led by Dr. García-Borreguero – an international reference, especially in restless legs syndrome – participates in studies and clinical trials, publishes in scientific journals and collaborates with centers around the world. It is ainternational research that consolidates us as a European reference.

For the patient, this translates into something concrete: earlier access to better treatments and the possibility of participating, if desired, in sleep research.
