Thematic Network for Translational Research in Puberty
(ReTIT-PUB)

A national excellence network that integrates basic and clinical research in puberty.

What is ReTIT-PUB?

ReTIT-PUB is the first national thematic network dedicated to translational research in puberty. It is composed of 15 leading research groups in Spain that integrate basic, clinical, and multidisciplinary approaches to advance the understanding of the mechanisms that regulate puberty and its disorders.

Objective and Mission

A network with a collaborative and translational vocation.

Our mission is to strengthen collaboration among leading national groups in puberty research, generate synergies, share resources, and enhance international visibility.

Through our specific objectives, we promote scientific activities, training, outreach, and support for clinical and preclinical research.

Working Groups

The network is structured into five thematic working groups (GT), each with a key focus for addressing the multiple factors involved in puberty.

GT-1

Genetic determinants of puberty

Lead: Jesús Argente

GT-2

Clinical studies on normal and disordered puberty

Lead: Lourdes Ibáñez

GT-3

Preclinical models for the study of puberty

Lead: María Domínguez

GT-4

Multi-omics and bioinformatic analysis

Leads: Concepción Aguilera and Mario Fernández-Fraga

GT-5

Mobility, training and outreach programme

Leads: Abel López Bermejo y Javier Morante

Network Members

More than 150 researchers from universities, hospitals, and centres of excellence are part of ReTIT-PUB. Their expertise ranges from paediatric endocrinology to cutting-edge omics analysis.
