Team ELIXIR Officers

The de.NBI/ELIXIR-DE Bioinformatics Infrastructure consists of 24 institutes, forming a distributed network that is organized into eight thematically focused Service Units. To coordinate activities, consolidate bioinformatics expertise, and enhance communication at the ELIXIR-DE operational level, the Team ELIXIR Officers was established in March 2020, composed of representatives from each of these eight Service Units.

This group of bioinformatics experts plays a pivotal role in ELIXIR's Platforms, Communities, Focus Groups, and ELIXIR-funded scientific studies, with several members holding co-lead positions. The Officers are deeply involved in the scientific operations of their respective Service Units, serving as key connectors between the Service Units, the ELIXIR-DE Administration Office, and the broader ELIXIR Europe network. They actively contribute to the development of specialized bioinformatics services, aligning with their scientific expertise and the bioinformatics resources they manage. Additionally, the Team ELIXIR Officers includes roles dedicated to driving and facilitating German, ELIXIR and EU projects, fostering innovation, and ensuring effective collaboration across the national network.
