Highlights
The highlight of 2015 was the granting of four na- tional projects and European, the group leader is the main researcher in two of the national ones:
• FIS project “HDL funcionality for the prediction of cardiovascular events in a 5-year follow-up, in ge- neral population. Life-style as a modulatory fac- tor” with the amount of 98,010 euros; PI: Montse- rrat Fitó.
• Project of the Marató de TV3 in Cataluña “Novel predictors of Coronary heart disease: endothelial Microparticles, HDL functionality, and fatty acid composition of cell membranes” of 133,907 eu- ros; PI: Montserrat Fitó.
• European project (DG Justice Action Grants) “Pre- dicting Risk of Emerging Drugs With in silico and Clinical Toxicology (PREDICT)” of 400,000 euros; PI: Rafael de la Torre.
• CDTI project “Biomolecules of the olive epidermis as adjuvant in the treatment of metabolic syndro- me” of 50,400 euros; PI: Rafael de la Torre.

• Project of the Spanish Society of Internal Medici- ne “Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, adhe- rence to the Mediterranean diet and legacy effect on 1000 patients, 10 years after an intervention with Mediterranean diet” of 30,000 euros; PI: Emili Sacanella.
In addition to these gains to finance the work of the next few years, progress is being made in the re- cruitment and management of the PREDIMED-plus Study and two subprojects based on the improving of the neurocognitive status and functionality of HDL.
In 2015, a European project under the H2020- PHC-2014-2015 (H2020-PHC-2015-single-stage Proposal: 690,166-selfie) call was requested about the development of a recommender of a healthy li- festyle for patients who have suffered a stroke. Al- though the project was rejected, the creation of the consortium has promoted presenting again a new project this year.
