ELIXIR's activities are divided into five areas called 'Platforms'. These are Data, Tools, Compute, Interoperability, and Training. The Platforms are managed by Platform leaders and the work is carried out by groups within the Platforms.
Data Platform
Aims to identify key data resources across Europe and support the linkages between data and literature.
Interoperability Platform
Develops and encourages the adoption of standards to describe life science data.
Training Platform
Helps scientists and developers find the training they need, and also provides that training.
