Vom 6. bis 8. November 2023 wurde die EPICUR-Konferenz zur gemeinsamen Nutzung von Forschungsinfrastrukturen von der Adam-Mickiewicz-Universität (AMU) im wunderschönen, historischen Palast Gułtowy in der Nähe von Poznań veranstaltet. Die Konferenz wurde von der AMU und dem Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) gemeinsam organisiert und brachte Experten für Forschungsinfrastrukturen, geistige Eigentumsrechte und offene Wissenschaft zusammen, um gemeinsam an der Etablierung einer gemeinsamen Politik zur Nutzung von Forschungsinfrastrukturen innerhalb der EPICUR-Allianz zu arbeiten. Die produktiven Treffen führten zu einem klaren Aktionsplan für drei Phasen zur Etablierung einer gemeinsamen Politik sowie der Empfehlung eines neuen Mobilitätsformats für Masterstudierende und Nachwuchsforscher, das die gemeinsame Nutzung von Forschungsinfrastrukturen umfasst. Wir möchten der AMU dafür danken, dass sie dieses erfolgreiche Event möglich gemacht hat.
