EGI-Engage:Competence centres
| EGI-Engage Competence centres: | Main page | ELIXIR | BBMRI | MoBrain | DARIAH | LifeWatch | EISCAT_3D | EPOS | Disaster Mitigation | | EGI-Engage Knowledge Commons |

The EGI-Engage project develops the 'Knowledge Commons' by supporting the work of science community-specific Competence Centres. Each of these are distributed centres where National Grid Initiatives (NGIs), user communities (scientific institutes), technology and service providers join forces. Competence Centres collect and analyse requirements, integrate community-specific applications into state-of-the-art services, foster interoperability across e-Infrastructures, and evolve services through a user-centric development model.
The competence centres provide state-of-the-art services, training, technical user support and application co-development to:
- biobanking and medical research (Biobanking and Bimolecular Research Infrastructure - BBMRI)
- art and humanities (Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities – DARIAH)
- life science research (ELIXIR)
- earth sciences (the next generation incoherent scatter radar – EISCAT_3D, the European Plate Observing System – EPOS, and climate modelling)
- biodiversity and ecosystem research (LifeWatch)
- structural biology and brain imaging research (MoBrain supporting WeNMR and Integrating Structural Biology – INSTRUCT).
The work of 8 competence centres are co-funded in the SA2 work package of the EGI-Engage project.
