ELIXIR funds internal projects that connect and integrate services across ELIXIR Nodes. These projects are led by experts from specific Platforms or Communities, leveraging national strengths and facilitating collaboration and integration across ELIXIR Nodes.
There are two types of internal projects:
- Commissioned Services
- Capacity Building and Knowledge Exchange
Commissioned Services
