WP 5 – Open, Diverse and Inclusive Science

 

 


Coordinator
María José G. Borge (CSIC)

Euro-Labs through its WP5 will enhance the users diversity (Task 5.1), bring the nuclear physics community into the EOSC (European Open Science Cloud) framework, develop services to enhance FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) data principles (Task 5.2), promote the use of machine learning (ML) methods to improve beam quality, transport efficiency and accelerator reproducibility (Task 5.3), and train young generations to make the European facilities better performing and more competitive (Task 5.4).

WP Goals

  • Foster the users diversity by engaging people of different nationalities, gender, age and level of expertise
  • Enhance communication on project opportunities and dissemination of the project results
  • Enhance the competitiveness of our research infrastructure and its technical capabilities

TASKS
