The main objective of this project was to design the framework for the European Paediatric Translational Research Infrastructure (EPTRI), a new Research Infrastructure (RI) aimed at enhancing technology-driven paediatric research in the discovery and early development phases, to be translated into clinical research and paediatric use of medicines.

ROLE OF THE FOUNDATION
The Foundation was a third party of CVBF. Its main responsibility was designing the organisational and technical model of the infrastructure, providing the setting-up and implementation of the IT platform and IT technologies to coordinate the information flow (communication, collaboration, and information sharing) among the participating units and services within the research infrastructure and with the external environment (member states, industry, patients, and other research groups).
