EMBL Conference

Connecting Core Facilities Staff of the Alliance

2RISE – Level Up: Alliance research infrastructure scientists education

Overview

The Health + Life Science Alliance is supporting core facilities staff of all Alliance Institutes through a project called 2RISE, managed by the RI coordinators of DKFZ, EMBL, Medical Faculty Mannheim,  University Heidelberg and ZI Mannheim. 

In the scope of 2RISE, we are organizing four training and networking days to facilitate education and networking of the Core Facilities staff. 

We are inviting members of the Alliance core facilities to register to join us on these days. 

You will have a chance to

  • meet your colleagues from other institutes
  • learn about the role of infrastructures in the Alliance and
  • discuss different aspects of service operation and management: best practices in user support, expanding the user base, optimizing services and developing core facilities and other research infrastructures strategically.

Draft agenda of the 4 days is below. Detailed agenda will be added in the separate tabs closer to the dates.

We look forward to your participation,
