*PRESS RELEASE*

*H2020 **project PaNOSC officially started to contribute making FAIR 
data a reality.*

Large-scale research infrastructures produce a huge amount of scientific 
data on a daily basis. For their storage and future (re)use, data need 
to managed according to the FAIR principles, i.e., be Findable, 
Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable. The adaptation and development 
of both policies and technologies are key to making FAIR data a reality 
and to serving the broad set of stakeholders who will benefit from a 
coherent ecosystem of data services.

Under the headline “European Open Science Cloud (EOSC)”, projects 
covering a wide range of scientific disciplines from physics, astronomy, 
and life sciences, to social sciences and humanities, have been funded 
by the European Commission to build and develop the EOSC, which includes 
a comprehensive catalogue of services for the storage, management, 
analysis and re-use of research data.

The project*PaNOSC, Photon and Neutron Open Science Cloud* 
<http://panosc-eu.github.io/>is one of five cluster projects funded 
under the European H2020 programme. PaNOSC started on the 1^st of 
December 2018, and will be officially launched on January 15th, 2019 at 
thekick-off meeting <https://indico.esrf.fr/indico/event/19/>, which 
will take place at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in 
Grenoble (France). The project, which will run until December 2022, is 
coordinated by the ESRF.

By bringing together six strategic European research infrastructures 
(ESRF <https://www.esrf.eu/>,CERIC-ERIC <http://ceric-eric.eu/>,ELI-DC 
<https://eli-laser.eu/>, theEuropean Spallation Source 
<https://europeanspallationsource.se/>,European XFEL 
<https://www.xfel.eu/> andInstitut Laue-Langevin, ILL 
<https://www.ill.eu/>) and the e-infrastructuresEGI 
<https://www.egi.eu/> andGEANT <https://www.geant.org/>, PaNOSC will 
contribute to the construction and development of the EOSC, an ecosystem 
allowing universal and cross-disciplinary open access to data through a 
single access point, for researchers in all scientific fields.

The project will work closely with the national photon and neutron 
sources in Europe in order to develop common policies, strategies, and 
solutions in the area of FAIR data policy, data management and data 
services. *[Read more]
