“It is essential to bring together scientists from different scientific fields, and to give them access to top-of-the-line computational and data resources. This is what e-Infrastructures are about: enabling collaboration, sharing resources, and providing access to information. In fact, today we cannot imagine advanced research without the intensive use of sophisticated e-Infrastructures.”
