IFCA

The main goal of the Instituto de Física de Cantabria is to promote high-quality scientific research in the fields of Astrophysics and Structure of Matter.

IFCA is a Joint Centre with the combined effort of two institutions, Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and University of Cantabria (UC) oriented to perform research on basic science: to understand the components of nature, from elementary particles (Particle Physics) to the largest structures of the Universe (Astronomy and Space Science) as well as the complex collective behaviour of matter (Statistical and Non-linear Physics).
