Article Synopsis
  • - The EOSC-Life consortium aims to enhance data reuse and sustainability in life sciences through collaborative efforts among 13 European research infrastructures, focusing on large-scale and computational research.
  • - Key barriers to sustainability identified include organisational, technical, financial, and legal/ethical challenges, which need to be addressed to improve resource management.
  • - The initiative advocates for adhering to FAIR principles and promotes data harmonisation and cross-disciplinary training, leading to better interoperability of tools and data in life science research.

ELIXIR is a pan-European intergovernmental organisation for life science that aims to coordinate bioinformatics resources in a single infrastructure across Europe; bioinformatics training is central to its strategy, which aims to develop a training community that spans all ELIXIR member states. In an evidence-based approach for strengthening bioinformatics training programmes across Europe, the ELIXIR Training Platform, led by the ELIXIR EXCELERATE Quality and Impact Assessment Subtask in collaboration with the ELIXIR Training Coordinators Group, has implemented an assessment strategy to measure quality and impact of its entire training portfolio. Here, we present ELIXIR's framework for assessing training quality and impact, which includes the following: specifying assessment aims, determining what data to collect in order to address these aims, and our strategy for centralised data collection to allow for ELIXIR-wide analyses.
