Use infrastructure to boost your research
Helse Bergen and the Faculty of Medicine invite to an information event about how our four European Research Infrastructures can help you and your research.

Main content
Through local, national and international collaboration, you can increase the quality of your research and improve your chances with funding opportunities.
Helse Bergen and the University of Bergen are members of the four European Research Infrastructures:
- ECRIN - European network for clinical trials, Norwegian partner is NorCRIN
- EATRIS - European network for Translational Medicine
- BBMRI - European infrastructure for Biobanking, Norwegian partner is Biobank Norway
- ELIXIR – the European Research Infrastructure for Life Science Data, with its Norwegian Node ELIXIR Norway
We want to tell you how these infrastructures can help you and your research.
We invite you to an information event on the 5th of January at 13:00 at the EITRI Medical Incubator.
NorCRIN, EATRIS, BBMRI and ELIXIR will be presented and we will talk about specific calls for funding and how scientific collaboration can help you make progress with your research.
We will be available for 1-to-1 conversation before and after the info meeting.
Welcome!
