ELIXIR Focus Group
ELIXIR Focus Groups are agile structures that bring interested parties together around a particular topic. Typically, they are used to address emerging areas of interest, and seek to identify a strategy that ELIXIR can follow.
Focus Groups are open to any member of ELIXIR, and to external parties, where useful.
