With the novel COVID-19 Coronavirus, the world is experiencing a variety of challenges. Researchers are working day and night, analysing the outbreak. Open Science, as a whole, has never been more relevant. Nor has the collaborative spirit that persistently remains amongst all of us. In EOSC-synergy we want to do as much as we can […]
By Matti Heikkurinen, EGI …the performance of your research and innovation services. We are of course talking about policy work: ensuring that the developments and services fit the rules and regulations that govern the overall research and innovation processes. Clickbait aside, policy work is typically seen as something similar to a healthy diet, good sleeping […]
EOSC-Synergy aims at expanding the uptake of EOSC by building capacities. Thematic services constitute an important part of the project and are the final layer that is exposed to final users. Therefore, the expansion of the capacity of the thematic services will require improved platform services and improved infrastructure services. The thematic services expect to […]
