IS MIRRI21

IS_MIRRI21 is a Horizon 2020 funded project that aims to implement the pan‑European Microbial Resource Research Infrastructure (MIRRI) as a fully functional entity and secure its long-term sustainability. MIRRI is soon to be established as a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC).

RI-VIS

RI-VIS is a Horizon 2020 funded project designed to increase the visibility of European research infrastructures (RIs) to new communities in Europe and beyond.

EOSC-Life

EOSC-Life brings together the 13 Life Science ‘ESFRI’ research infrastructures (LS RIs) to create an open, digital and collaborative space for biological and medical research.

RItrain

RItrain, the Research Infrastructure Training Programme, is an EU-funded Horizon 2020 project aimed at improving and professionalizing the training of managerial and leadership staff in research infrastructures (RIs).

EMBRIC

The European Marine Biological Research Infrastructure Cluster (EMBRIC) is designed to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery and innovation from marine Bio-Resources. EMBRIC aims to promote new applications derived from marine organisms in fields such as drug discovery, novel foods and food ingredients, aquaculture selective breeding, bioremediation, cosmetics and bioenergy.

PrePhase Mirri

PrePhase MIRRI has established the basis for a pan-European distributed research infrastructure that provides facilitated access to high quality microorganisms for research, development and application and connects public microbial domain Biological Resource Centers (mBRCs) with researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders to deliver biological material and services more effectively and efficiently to meet the needs of innovation in biotechnology.

Corbel

CORBEL is an initiative of thirteen new biological and medical research infrastructures (BMS RIs), which together will create a platform for harmonised user access to biological and medical technologies, biological samples and data services required by cutting-edge biomedical research.

ECCO

ECCO, the European Culture Collections’ Organisation was established in 1981. The aim of the organisation is to promote collaboration and exchange of ideas and information about all aspects of culture collection activity. ECCO meetings are held annually and are a valuable forum for discussion and innovation on the future development of member collection activities.

ISO/TC 276 Biotechnology

ISO/TC 276 Biotechnology will work closely with related committees in order to identify standardization needs and gaps, and collaborate with other organisations to avoid duplications and overlapping standardization activities.

FAO

FAO is the Secretariat of the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (support to The State of World on Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture).

OECD

OECD, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development is an international organisation that works to build better policies for better lives. OECD goal is to shape policies that foster prosperity, equality, opportunity and well-being for all. OECD was a Working Party on Biotechnology.

WFCC

WFCC, is a Multidisciplinary Commission of the International Union of Biological Sciences (IUBS) and a Federation within the International Union of Microbiological Societies (IUMS). The WFCC is concerned with the collection, authentication, maintenance and distribution of cultures of microorganisms and cultured cells.

WDCM

WFCC-MIRCEN World Data Centre for Microorganisms (WDCM), was set up as data center of the World Federation for Culture Collections (WFCC). The WDCM is a vehicle for networking microbial resource centres of various types of microbes. It also serves as an information resource for the customers of the microbial resource centers.
