ELIXIR-SI projects

ELIXIR-SI RI-SI-2 INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT

At the end of 2019 ELIXIR-SI signed a contract with the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport for the development of research infrastructure for international competitiveness of Slovenian RDI area – ELIXIR-SI RI-SI-2 project.

 

The upgrade worth 5.26 million EUR was funded by European Regional Development Fund and the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports. The financing of the project was completed on August 31, 2021.

 

With these funds ELIXIR-SI actively upgraded the existing infrastructure and established new infrastructure in the Slovenian research area through three pillars:

  1. a central national data node for life sciences,
  2. national infrastructure for obtaining high-density data with high-throughput laboratory technologies (genomic technologies) and
  3. center for education and training in life sciences (usage of bioinformatic tools, analysis and services).
The duration of the infrastructure project ELIXIR-SI RI-SI-2 is until 31 August 2026.

National

ELIXIR-STEERS

  • The ELIXIR-STEERS project aims to assist researchers in accessing national data sets and conducting extensive cross-border data analyses from across Europe.
  • It will promote good software management practices and support scientists in their software management needs.
  • Grant agreement:  101131096

EOSC-ENTRUST

  • EOSC-ENTRUST is a Horizon Europe project led by ELIXIR Hub at EMBL-EBI.

  • The project aims to create a European network of trusted research environments for sensitive data and promote European interoperability through collaborative development of a common blueprint for federated data access and data analysis.

  • Grant agreement:  101131056

ELIXIR-CONVERGE

  • ELIXIR-CONVERGE is a project funded by the European Commission to help standardise life science data management across Europe. To achieve this standardisation, the project will develop a data management toolkit for life scientists. The toolkit will help ensure more research data is in the public domain, which will give scientists access to more data. This will allow them to discover new insights into the challenges facing society, such as food security and health in old age, and help stimulate innovation in biomedicine and biotechnology.

  • ELIXIR-CONVERGE will develop the national operations of the research infrastructure to drive good data management, reproducibility and reuse. Over 36 months (+6 months extension) and with partners from all 23 Nodes, ELIXIR-CONVERGE takes the next step to create a European data federation where interconnected national operations allow users to extract knowledge from life science’s large, diverse and distributed datasets.
  • Grant agreement: 871075

Beyond 1 Million Genomes

  • The Beyond 1 Million Genomes (B1MG) consortium will provide coordination and support to the 1+ Million Genomes initiative (1+MG), which is based upon the commitment of 21 European Member States and Norway that have signed the Declaration ‘Towards access to at least 1 million sequenced genomes in the EU by 2022’. Slovenia was in the group of first signatories. Collectively, all participating countries have committed to establishing a cross-border federated network of national genome collections associated with phenotypic data, consented for advancing health and medicine practices across Europe.

  • B1MG will go ‘beyond’ the 1M genome target and ‘beyond’ the 21 signatory countries. The project will collaborate with an array of international initiatives and consult a range of stakeholders to support the creation of a pan-European genome-based health data infrastructure, encompassing data quality and exchange standards, access protocols and legal guidance.

  • Grant agreement: 951724

European joint programme on rare diseases – EJP RD

  • The European Joint Programme on Rare Diseases (EJP RD) brings over 130 institutions (including all 24 ERNs) from 35 countries to create a comprehensive, sustainable ecosystem allowing a virtuous circle between research, care and medical innovation.
  • Grant agreement: 825575

Personalised Medicine Center of Excellence – PerMedCoE

  • PerMedCoE is a pan-European project coordinated by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) and funded by the European Commission.
  • PerMedCoE is based on exascale high-performance computing (HPC).
    It will optimise codes for cell-level simulations and bridge the gap between organ and molecular simulations.
  • Important contribution to the European Personalised Medicine Roadmap.
  • Grant agreement: 951773

EOSC Life

  • EOSC-Life brings together the 13 Life Science ‘ESFRI’ research infrastructures (LS RIs) to create an open, digital and collaborative space for biological and medical research.
  • The project will publish ‘FAIR’ data and a catalogue of services provided by participating RIs for the management, storage and reuse of data in the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
  • Grant agreement: 8824087

ELIXIR Excelerate

  • EXCELERATE funding (2015-2019) helped ELIXIR coordinate and extend national and international data resources to ensure the delivery of world-leading life-science data services. It supported a pan-European training programme, anchored in national infrastructures, to increase bioinformatics capacity and competency. It also provided efficiencies in management and operation throughout the infrastructure, which was distributed amongst 17 countries, including ELIXIR-SI.
  • Grant agreement: 676559

Instand-NGS4P

  • The Instand-NGS4P project will improve the treatment of cancer patients through the development of standard NGS workflows for clinical practice. Through open discussions with providers and field experts, the project partners will develop requirements for two standard NGS workflows, including a clinical decision support system to be used in clinical oncology practice.
  • Grant agreement: 874719
