CDR Activities Overview
The ELIXIR Core Data Resources (CDR) process consists of three key activities:
- CDR Selection: the running of intermittent CDR selection rounds to add new mature biodata resources to the ELIXIR CDR portfolio.
- Annual Indicator Monitoring (AIM): metric collection from the current portfolio of CDR and ELIXIR Depsoition Databases (EDD) - runs on an annual basis.
- CDR Periodic Review: an in-depth review of the current CDR portfolio - generally runs every three years.
All activities relating to the ELIXIR CDR process will be maintained and updated in an ongoing basis on this web page within the timeline below.

Information on the Global Biodata Coalition (GBC)
- The Global Biodata Coalition (GBC) are working on a global scale to identify Global Core Biodata Resources (GCBR).
- The GBC and ELIXIR operate independently from each other and maintain separate processes of biodata resource selection and monitoring.
- ELIXIR intends to operationally align its activities to best enable participation of ELIXIR members in both the ELIXIR CDR process and the GBC's GCBR process.
