The Health Research Institute of La Paz University Hospital (IdiPAZ) is conceived as a multidisciplinary and translational biomedical research space oriented towards basic, clinical, epidemiological and health services research, resulting from the relationship between La Paz University Hospital (HULP), the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM), the University Hospital of Getafe (HUG), the European University (EU) and the Biomedical Research Foundation of La Paz University Hospital (FIBHULP).
Since its formal establishment on December 15, 2009, IdiPAZ has been accredited by the Carlos III Health Institute (ISCIII), renewing this accreditation in May 2015 and February 2020. In 2025, IdiPAZ renewed this accreditation for another five years.
