Europe-Russian Federation Symposium on Research Infrastructures

симпозиумEurope-Russian Federation Symposium on Research Infrastructures was held on December 17th 2021, as a virtual event. The virtual symposium brought together delegates from Russian and European Research Infrastructures (RIs) which are active in different scientific domains, to raise awareness of the broad array of scientific opportunities offered to scientists and for RI cooperation in Europe and in the Russian Federation. The event contributed to visibility to individual RIs and offered a platform for mutual knowledge and dissemination.

Target audience consisted of researchers who have an interest in learning more about research infrastructures and the research opportunities they offer to scientists. Special Q&A sessions gave the participants an opportunity to exchange their experience and knowledge and build new valuable contacts for future collaboration.

The event was organised by CREMLINplus project (WP8 TNA) together with the RI-VIS project.

CREMLINplus (Connecting Russian and European Measures for Large-scale Research Infrastructures – plus) is an EU Horizon 2020 project fostering European-Russian scientific and technical collaboration in the field of research infrastructures (RIs).

RI-VIS project is an EU Horizon 2020 project designed to increase the visibility of European research infrastructures (RIs) to new communities in Europe and beyond.
