ELIXIR in GENialt – CBU
An article in GENialt discusses cuts in funding for American research and how this is causing concern both in the U.S. and internationally. Norwegian researchers, including Professor Sushma Grellscheid from CBU and ELIXIR, are worried about the potential consequences for research data stored in U.S.-funded databases. Read the full article in the latest issue of GENialt.
