  • Portuguese Clinical Research Infrastructure Network (PtCRIN)


PtCRIN is an infrastructure of the Portuguese Roadmap of Research Infrastructures, organized as a decentralized consortium of several institutions including 5 clinical trial units, that
support the implementation and conduction of multinational clinical trials providing general services to academic sponsors and SMEs at a not-for-profit rate, particularly experimental/
intervention clinical studies with drugs, medical devices, surgery, behaviour, nutrition, etc, in the denominated Investigator Initiated Clinical Trials (IICTs). PtCRIN is the Portuguese hub of
the ECRIN, a European Research International Consortium (ERIC) integrated into the European Strategic Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI).

  • ROSSIO, Social Sciences, Arts And Humanities

The ROSSIO Infrastructure is constituted by a consortium, coordinated by the School of Social Sciences and Humanities (NOVA FCSH) and integrates several cultural and educational institutions. Its core mission is to aggregate, organize, link, contextualize, enrich, and disseminate a unique universe of digital content about social sciences and humanities and aims to be a reference for SSAH and will contribute to the excellence, innovation and internationalization of Portuguese science and Portuguese-speaking cultural heritage. Through a dynamic research infrastructure ROSSIO provides a broad, diverse, and valuable range of quality content with great potential for the cultural and creative industries. ROSSIO also provides value-added services like a Search Portal; a Virtual Research Environment; Digital Collections and Exhibitions, Training sessions and MOOCs.

  • In Vivo Arthropod Security Facility (VIASEF)
     

VIASEF is a high security RI that offers to the scientific community and industry the possibility to develop in vivo studies with autochthonous, invasive, exotic or transgenic arthropod vectors, to develop research in arthropod-transmitted diseases and the possibility of expanding current research lines with the use of human pathogens and their arthropod vectors, in a cost-effective manner. It also provides safe laboratorial conditions to develop projects with human pathogens including those classified as biohazard level 3. It conducts studies primarily in the context of malaria, arboviruses and leishmaniasis operating in an IberianSouth Mediterranean geographic context and in close collaboration with the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries.

  • Social Sciences Datalab (DATALAB)


DataLab is a RI that provides all the essential conditions for advanced research in Social Sciences. It does so by providing free access to the most complete bibliographic and statistical
datasets in the fields of Economics, Finance and Management. DataLab also supports public and private institutions by providing an infrastructure where they can make their data available to the scientific community. It also provides research assistance to studies using the databases at the DataLab. Finally, it provides users with training and support, as well as communication services. DataLab has also set up its Safe Center, a physical infrastructure that hosts unique administrative microdata, and supports the SHARE project on multidiciplinary microdata.
