Each year EATRIS awards three nodes with a Node Reward, that signifies their commitment to supporting EATRIS goals.
To demonstrate the national nodes’ support to these goals, the award can be applied for in the following three categories:
- Increasing annually the number of external users (users from non-member institutions) accessing EATRIS;
- Further the field of translational research through developing education & training activities and/or contributing to education and training content, as well as patient engagement activities; and
- Increasing quality and reproducibility of translational research through participating in quality-related initiatives, such as proficiency testing of technology systems.
Based on the independent review committee’s decision three nodes will receive a bursary of €6000 to support their node activities in the following year.
All EATRIS member countries are eligible and encouraged to apply for the Node Reward designation during the annual node reporting process that commences on 31 March every year.
Past recipients of Node Rewards:
2023 – Slovenia, Spain and Sweden
2022 – Portugal, Spain and Norway
2021 – Portugal, Luxembourg and Spain
