ELIXIR-UK Town Meeting

The meeting will present ELIXIR and its UK node ELIXIR-UK to a wide academic audience. ELIXIR’s aim is to ensure efficient and seamless data sharing across Europe and with the rest of the world. Its membership now comprises 19 member states and EMBL and it increasingly represents the major contributions each of them make to the life science data ecosystem (from human genetic and genomic data to agriculture-related resources). The aim of the meeting is to explain ELIXIR and ELIXIR’s vision, and describe some of the ongoing activities relating to training and plant data. The meeting will finish with a wide-ranging discussion and mixer session to help clarify, ask questions and develop links.
