EU-LIFE contributes to the improvement of research by influencing European science policies and by developing, implementing and disseminating best practices in the organisation and management of research institutes.
We implement a number of concrete actions, including:
- Advocating for excellence in life sciences research
- Contributing to European and International research policies
- Developing and disseminating best practices in science and science-related areas, such as advanced training, science communication, technology transfer, and funding strategies.
- Promoting fruitful institutional and scientific collaborations within and outside EU-LIFE
Research Policy
In the research policy field, our aim is to advocate for excellence in research and contribute to European and International science policy key documents. Our priority areas are Research strategy & funding with emphasis on Horizon Europe, European research area (ERA) & Open science, Gender equality and Research infrastructures.
Research Excellence
Excellent science is key to the future of society. We aim to develop and share best practices to reach this excellent research through our dedicated working groups and task forces. We build and participate in collective projects. We finally share our science resources (training, technologic platforms, research groups, visiting scientist program, jobs).
