METROFOOD-RI

The European research infrastructure METROFOOD-RI is ready to enter a new phase, marked by its strengthened position in the world of #agrifood #innovation. This phase will feature closer collaboration with other institutions to achieve long-term scientific and financial #sustainability These were the key messages emerging from the dual event organized in Rome as part of the METROFOOD-EPI project “The double appointment in Rome confirmed that METROFOOD-RI is on the right way to becoming a research infrastructure capable of making a significant contribution to the sustainability, quality and #safety of the agrifood sector", said Claudia Zoani, coordinator od METROFOOD-RI.

I had the pleasure to attend the METROFOOD-RI Early phase Implementation meeting at Rome this past week. It was a great opportunity to learn and witness the formation of research infrastructures for a better agrifood system. I’d also like to bring attention to AQUASERV, research infrastructure aiming to promote research cooperation in Blue economy.

On 13 December in Rome, the METROFOOD-EPI Open Event, organised by METROFOOD-RI, focused on the role of Research Infrastructures in transforming the agri-food sector. At the event, Marco Rorro, AI Solutions Architect at the EGI Foundation, delivered the presentation “#EOSC, EGI, and the Importance of FAIR Data, Repositories, and Nodes in Advancing Open Science.” Marco showcased how EGI supports #OpenScience and FAIR data practices, enabling researchers and stakeholders to drive innovation and collaboration in this vital sector.

I had the pleasure to present the exciting results of our transnational service access for integrated analytical services with METROFOOD-RI. So happy to re-unite with all our partners at the final consortium meeting and the open event in Rome. 🤝🏽 Our infrastructure emphasizes the importance of international cooperation to advance innovations in sustainable food systems and circular economy - a topic indispensable for the future of the food sector. 🌿 My absolute highlight was the young scientist session today - so many strong women pitching their research and creating an impact in our community 💪🏼 Thank you to all our partner labs for the smooth collab over the past year and especially the ENEA team with Claudia Zoani for the great organisation of this event! 🫶🏼 @ Rychlik Lab
