EU-LIFE, an alliance between 10 of Europe’s leading bioscience research centres, was inaugurated at a meeting in Barcelona on 29 May.
The partner institutions will each operate with similar principles of excellence, external reviews, independence, competitiveness, and internationality, according to a statement by the new body. “During difficult economic times and within a highly competitive international research landscape, we believe that we can join forces to address complex questions, thereby contributing to pushing European science forward.”
The network employs 7039 scientists and support staff and member institutions are currently involved in 59 EU funded projects and hold 59 grants from the European Research Council.
