Barcelona, 31st May–2nd June, was the setting for the Homeopathy Research Institute's first research conference – ‘Cutting Edge Research in Homeopathy’. Attended by 180 people from 33 countries, this event brought together researchers from around the world to present and discuss their latest findings. With 36 oral presentations from leaders in the field, the scientific quality of the programme was high and the content diverse. This report summarises some of the key findings reported during the conference, which demonstrated the sound progress being made in the field.

Following the success of Barcelona 2013, the HRI intends to hold similar conferences, dedicated solely to homeopathy research, on a bi-annual basis, furthering the generation of new high quality research through ever stronger international collaborations.
