Implementation of Translational Research Infrastructure in Europe

Currently, EATRIS is in its Implementation Phase (2011-2014). This stage aims at allowing the EATRIS Translation Centres to take up first user projects to phase in the operation and gradually expand their capacities and missing components, thus allowing an establishment of full coverage of the necessary technological facilities and sufficient capacity following user demand.

By 2015, EATRIS will be fully operational and offer support on a regular basis. It will be an innovation core for new diagnostics and therapies, open to researchers and industry. National resources will provide a sustainable budget for building and operating EATRIS. Additional funding will also be sought from European and private sources.
