Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure - European Research Infrastructure Consortium

Description The pan-European Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure European Research Infrastructure Consortium (BBMR-ERIC) improves the accessibility and interoperability of the existing comprehensive collections, either population-based or clinical-oriented, of biological samples from different (sub)populations of Europe. On 3 December 2013, BBMRI was officially awarded the Community legal framework for a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC). This specific legal form is designed to facilitate the joint establishment and operation of research infrastructures of European interest. The ERIC status allows pulling together biobanks and biomolecular resources into a pan-European facility and providing access to collections of partner biobanks and biomolecular resources, their expertise and services on a non-economic basis. BBMRI-ERIC is organized by a distributed structure with National Nodes in its Member States. Its Headquarter is located in Graz, Austria and will provide a common access portal to resources available to BBMRI-ERIC Partners as well as appropriate facilities and expertise. Members and Observers of BBMRI-ERIC (as of May 2014) Member Countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Sweden Observer Countries: Norway, Poland, Switzerland, Turkey, IARC
