The BBMRI-ERIC EOSC Node integrates Europe’s biobanks and biomolecular resources into the EOSC Federation. It provides GDPR-compliant, FAIR access to biosamples, genomic, imaging, and clinical data across ~500 biobanks in 25 countries.
The Node enables secure federated analysis environments, contributes to the European Health Data Space (EHDS2), and supports AI-driven biomedical research with multicentric validation of models and biomarker discovery.
Key objective: To establish the BBMRI-ERIC Node as the biomedical/sensitive health data EOSC Node, enabling FAIR and secure federated access to data, GDPR-compliant analysis, and cross-border research in alignment with EHDS2.
Science areas: Biomedical and clinical research, genomics, biomarker discovery, personalised medicine, oncology, population health, One Health.
