About the CRAI

The Centro Rausenbach de Análisis e Investigación (CRAI) is an independent research institute based in Puerto Lumbreras (Spain), dedicated to the study of human biological systems within an evolutionary and ecological context.
It operates as a specialised scientific structure focused on the rigorous analysis of complex regulatory phenomena, with a long-term orientation and its own programmatic organisation.

Institutional Role

The CRAI has as its institutional function the contribution to the consolidation of coherent analytical frameworks for studying biological regulation and human variability.
The institute acts as a structured nucleus of independent research, promoting conceptual clarity, methodological stability, and the progressive accumulation of knowledge in interdisciplinary domains where biology, evolution, and environment converge.
Its activities are conducted under principles of scientific precision and institutional responsibility.

Operational Approach

The research conducted by the CRAI integrates conceptual modelling, experimental analysis, and interdisciplinary evaluation of complex biological systems.
The scientific work is organised through defined programs, proprietary protocols, and selective collaboration with other academic or scientific entities.
The institute maintains an accumulative orientation, prioritising internal consistency and structural coherence over fragmentary or short-term approaches.

Institutional Architecture

The activities of CRAI are formally structured through:

Su Constitución Científica, que define sus fundamentos epistemológicos.

Su Marco Estratégico, que establece su orientación programática.

Sus Líneas de Investigación, donde se desarrollan los contenidos científicos específicos.

This structure ensures a clear differentiation between principles, planning, and research implementation.

Scientific Directorate

The CRAI is directed by Daniel Raus de Baviera, specialised in Biomedicine and Molecular Biology and holding a PhD in Agricultural, Agro-Environmental and Food Science and Technology.
Su trayectoria integra investigación en biología molecular, fitoquímica y regulación neurobiológica, con enfoque interdisciplinario y orientación evolutiva.
