Participation in the EU call INFRASTRUCTURE 2012.1.1.5
EATRIS wants to forward the process of integration and to accelerate the building of European translational research infrastructure
The EATRIS I3 INFRA project proposal implements functioning international consortia of European translational research infrastructures, providing in-depth translational research services to external users. In 5 product groups (Vaccines, Imaging and Tracers, Biomarkers, ATMP's and Small Molecules), academic centres of excellence from 9 countries work together to create harmonised, European-wide access to existing infrastructure, covering a wide range of disease areas.
These platforms will cover most of the needs identified as bottlenecks for Translational Medicine for Academia and SME's in Europe.The project includes strong networking facilities, addressing key stakeholders such as academia, industry and patient groups. Outreach serves the purposes of encouraging debate and innovation, dissemination and best practice.
By enhancing scientific capacity, integrating the horizontal functions in the research services offering, organizing translational access and create long term financial sustainability, the I3 project allows EATRIS to make a flying start and to become a key player in translational research in the world in 4 years.
