EOSC Data Commons officially underway

The EOSC Data Commons project kicked off in Amsterdam last month. With 22 European institutions participating, it will be running for three years, until end of March 2028. The main goal is to develop an AI-enhanced "matchmaker" service that discovers published research datasets and combines them with analysis workflows able to process them, all powered by the European Open Science Cloud. The project receives EU funding within the Horizon Europe initiative. SIS participates on behalf of ETH Zurich with separate funding from the Swiss government.
