Description
The Life-Science Grid Community is an open Virtual Research Community federating Virtual Organizations (VOs) related to the Life-Science field. It gathers five VOs representing around 500 users world-wide. Its main missions are to represent the Life-Science grid users, coordinate technical and non-technical actions, provide technical services, organize community-specific training events and help transferring knowledge among the VOs. The Life-Science Grid Community initiative started in June 2010 and signed a memorandum of understanding with EGI in June 2011. This presentation will summarize the achievements of the last year and highlight our current actions and challenges.
