“Open access to JRC Research Infrastructures”

The basic idea is that the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) opens its scientific laboratories and facilities to people working in academia and research organisations, industry, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and more in general to the public and private sector. This access will be on a competitive basis, as a group is expected to submit a proposal, which will be evaluated together with other proposals ...etc.

You can find the relevant press-release of our Commissioner
Mr. Tibor Navracsics at: http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-17-2002_en.htm.

Information about the conditions of access and details of the 2nd Call for
proposals are included in the EU Science Hub page:

It is to be noted that the ELSA-HOPLAB has been included in this 2nd Call, which will remain open from 31 October 2018 until 31 January 2019.
