ELIXIR Portugal is the national, distributed node of the European ELIXIR infrastructure, committed to advancing life and health sciences through excellence in data management and cutting-edge bioinformatics. It brings together fifteen Portuguese research institutions, connecting them to the wider European network and enabling access to shared tools, training opportunities, and high-performance computing resources.
Operating under BioData.pt, ELIXIR Portugal strengthens collaboration between academia and industry, driving innovation across key sectors such as health, agro-food, and marine sciences.
In 2023, BioData.pt was formally designated as the Portuguese Node of the Federated European Genome-Phenome Archive (FEGA)—a distributed network of repositories designed for the secure sharing of sensitive biomedical research data.
