A.C. (Do not translate)

It doesn't really matter what it stands for, because it's part of the registered legal name, which should never be translated.
Peer comment(s):

agree Jesus Solis : "Instituto de Investigaciones en Neuroplasticidad y Desarrollo Celular A.C." This is the legal name of the organization, and should remain in Spanish...

Asociación sin fines de lucro

Yes, it literally means Asociacion Civil, but its legal meaning (at least in Venezuela) as a Non-profit Organization. For example charitable organizations, Clubs, etc. are A.C.
In this case refers to a a Reseach Institute as a Non-profit organization.
Peer comment(s):
