EVOLVE Overview


The EVOLVE consortium brings together the three entities that make up the Euro-BioImaging Hub team in order to significantly strengthen Euro-BioImaging to reach its next level as a pan-European organisation, and to live up to the needs and expectations expressed by its continuously expanding communities of users, partners, ERIC members, industry and other relevant stakeholders. The Euro-BioImaging Statutory Seat, Euro-BioImaging ERIC, coordinates the project from Finland. Other project contributors include the Euro-BioImaging Bio-Hub, hosted by the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, and the Euro-BioImaging Med-Hub, hosted by the Consiglio Nazionale Delle Ricerche, in Turin, Italy.

The actions and outcomes of the EVOLVE project are designed to benefit the entire Euro-BioImaging community of members, as illustrated below.

The EVOLVE project benefits the entire Euro-BioImaging community through heightened visibility and developments for imaging and imaging-based research. Targeted actions in the EVOLVE project will benefit Euro-BioImaging Nodes, national imaging communities and other stakeholders. Within EVOLVE, we will develop relationships with national funders, industry, and strengthen the Euro-BioImaging Hub team for the benefit of the entire community.
