ELIXIR Node Support
ELIXIR is a distributed research infrastructure across 23 countries, employing a model where each member state establishes a Node connecting leading institutes and universities in bioinformatics and life and health research. The aim of the ELIXIR Node Support project is to empower and further develop the Nodes by sharing, developing and providing knowledge and tools across the 23 ELIXIR Nodes on federated infrastructures, open science, impact, and stakeholder engagement.
The ELIXIR Node Support project is an ELIXIR funded project and is built on the Node Tier of ELIXIR work programme 2024-2028. The Node Tier has the ambition to equip ELIXIR Nodes for successful long-term operations, including:
- Node operations
- National research & open science policy alignment
- Industry and Innovation
- Impact and long-term sustainability
- Use of ELIXIR services
The Dutch ELIXIR Node (ELIXIR-NL) is actively involved in the project. Health-RI as host of ELIXIR-NL as well as ELIXIR-NL member institutes:
- Work package 2: Operations in Federated Research Infrastructures (Health-RI)
- Work package 3: Improving preparedness for funding applications and other requests for information from funders and stakeholders
- Work package 4: Alignment with national Open Science plans and national research policies and links to EOSC (lead by Health-RI)
- Work package 5: Industry engagement (WUR)
Health-RI colleagues from the teams International, Life Sciences and FAIR data are contributing to this project.
The project runs for 30 months, from July 2024 till December 2026.
