Annual contributions of the Members hosting the CCU
Organisational structure of the CCU The Central Coordinating Unit of MIRRI-ERIC consists of two distributed sections, the Statutory Seat located in the city of Braga on the territory of the Portuguese Republic and the Collaborative Working Environment (CWE) Hub operated in the city of Paterna on the territory of the Kingdom of Spain.
MIRRI-ERIC will be managed independently of on-going administrative structures that operate locally and CCU staff will be independent from any mBRC.
Location and physical infrastructure The MIRRI-ERIC statutory seat will be located at the University of Minho in Braga.
The university hosts over 20 000 students and has numerous departments, many relevant to MIRRI-ERIC.
The Biological Engineering Centre (CEB) provides an interface with the MIRRI-ERIC statutory seat and hosts the Portuguese ISO 9001:2015 certified Micoteca da Universidade do Minho (MUM) culture collection.
CEB activities have resulted in more than 13 spinoff companies.
The Medical School, Biology and Chemistry Departments are within walking distance.
The International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) is nearby.
The science and technology park, AvePark, is nearby offering relevant interfaces.
The MIRRI-CWE Hub will be hosted at the University of Valencia (UV).
The UV has a computing service that offers running applications of a scientific or educational nature.
Tirant 2 is the Valencia node of the Spanish Supercomputing Network and is managed by the UV.
It has the necessary infrastructure to accommodate large servers and have specialised human resources to manage them.
This CWE virtual environment will be hosted at UV, using synergies with LifeWatch ERIC Common Facility situated in Spain in the development of tools necessary to accomplish the common goals of both RIs.
