EPTRI Open Meeting

Home / Media / Events / EPTRI Open Meeting

 

The EPTRI Open Meeting was held remotely on the 2nd-3rd of April 2020 to guarantee the safely participation of the participants and the possibility to join and contribute to this crucial meeting.

The event has been the occasion to sum up the activities and the goals achieved as well as to discuss the challenges of the future EPTRI’s work.

The first part of the meeting provided an overview of the activities carried out so far in the project, together with a description of the future EPTRI architecture in terms of governance model, IT structure, services and organisation, being part of the design of the future infrastructure. Description was also presented of the centralised services provided at central hub level and of the integrated services based on the facilities and competences of the Institutions and research units that will constitute the thematic research platforms.

An open meeting took place in the morning of the second day with 13 presentations selected through a Call for Abstracts launched on February, on several topics related to the research areas of EPTRI. All the posters selected by the EPTRI Scientific Committee are published as teaser videos of 3 minutes and all the selected oral presentations are published as 10 minutes videos on the EPTRI website and on our YouTube channel.

A dedicated session on the EPTRI common services in collaboration with other RIs and the importance of the networking and outreach took place in the afternoon of the second day.
