Implementation and Sustainability of Microbial Resource Research Infrastructure for the 21st Century (IS_MIRRI21) is a three-year H2020 project that supports the implementation of Microbial Resource Research Infrastructure (MIRRI). MIRRI (
https://www.mirri.org/) is a pan-European research infrastructure made up of 50+ member organisations including academic institutions, microbial Biological Resource Centres (mBRCs), Culture Collections (CCs) and experts from 11 European countries.
MIRRI’s services and offers are supplied through the resources and expertise of its members to induce and sustain transnational cooperation and coordination in research and innovation within the sectors of Life Sciences and Biotechnology. MIRRI has a special focus on the domains of Health & Food, Agro-Food, and Environment & Energy and intends to meet the demand for resources, data, research facilities and expertise in these domains squarely.
In view of exploiting MIRRI’s resources through collaboration with other RIs in Europe and Latin America to advance innovation and research in biosciences, these two events have been set up with the aim of presenting opportunities to bring innovation actors in Life Sciences and biotechnology to the same table. In synergy with RI-VIS, a Horizon 2020 funded project designed to increase the visibility of European research infrastructures (RIs) to new communities in Europe and beyond, IS_MIRRI21 partners and innovation actors from Research and Development (R&D) frameworks in Europe will present funding opportunities for joint collaboration in the above mentioned domains and how to become a member of MIRRI’s network.
