Since the beginning of 2022, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH as a member of the Helmholtz Association has been entrusted with the consolidation of ELIXIR Germany.

The National Node is led by the Heads of Node Prof. Alexander Sczyrba and Prof. Oliver Kohlbacher as well as the Deputy Head of Node Dr. Irena Maus. The scientific delegates from Germany to the ELIXIR Board are Prof. Rolf Backofen and Prof. Alexander Goesmann.
