From one slide about the InfraLife project 2021 to full session 2025.
The InfraLife project was initiated in 2021, and that year Magnus Larsson mentioned it briefly at the MAX IV 2021 user meeting. Now, about 4 years later, one afternoon session at the MAX IV user meeting 2025 was hosted by InfraLife. The session program included description of the InfraLife project, the infrastructures SciLifeLan and ESS as well as insights about SciLifeLab infrastructure in Spatial Biology and integrated Structural Biology in Sweden. Two of the InfraLife feasibility call funded projects also presented their plans.
The session was one of several parallel session and had about 50 persons attending through out.
The program (available presentations linked)
