ESFRI Roadmap
Published in October 2006, updated in 2008 and 2010.
Will be used to facilitate decision-making by member
states and EC.
Will not prioritise or decide on funding and locations.
Four areas: Physical Sciences and Engineering (PSE),
Biological and Medical Sciences (BMS), Social Sciences
and Humanities (SSH), Environment (ENV).
Total: 48 ESFRI infrastructures.

EU-OPENSCREENs Mission
A pan-European infrastructure to...
accelerate the discovery of biologically active substances in all areas of
the life sciences
facilitate transnational access to the most advanced technologies,
chemical and biological resources, knowledge and expertise
advance the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms of complex
biological processes
increase knowledge on the bio-activities of chemical substances, as
well as the responses of biological systems to these substances
promote the availability of safe and efficacious chemical products for
unmet needs in medicine, nutrition, agriculture, environment

OBJECTIVES
EU-OPENSCREENs objective is the development of novel research
tool compounds for all fields of the Life Sciences.
Tool compounds enable researchers to investigate molecular mechanisms of physiological
and pathological processes, many of which can only be studied with these chemical tools
All generated tools and data are made publically available to the scientific community
Chemical keys for lifes locks
Service Portfolio
EU-OPENSCREEN will provide services to support the development of
tool compounds at all stages
LAYOUT OF RI
EU-OPENSCREEN integrates Europes expert resources and facilities into its
unique concept of a knowledge-creating Chemical Biology Centre and supports
all stages of tool development projects in an RI open for external researchers.
