The event brought together senior research infrastructure (RI) scientists, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/about\/info\/arise\/\">ARISE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/training\/arise2\/\">ARISE2<\/a> fellows, and representatives of partner organisations including SciLifeLab, VIB, GSK, VBCF, CEITEC, ARINAX, ESRF, Weizmann Institute of Science, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Universit\u00e9 Grenoble Alpes. The symposium offered a platform to discuss emerging technologies and strengthen connections across the ARISE community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cARISE is a unique training programme that leverages EMBL&#8217;s strengths, combining its main missions of training, research, and services,\u201d said Monika Lachner, Head of EICAT and ARISE2 Programme Director. \u201cWith this event, we wanted to bring together the ARISE community \u2013&nbsp; fellows, group leaders and partner organisations \u2013 to encourage exchange of ideas and create opportunities for new connections.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ARISE and ARISE2 are Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Actions co-funded fellowship programmes aimed at training the next generation of scientists and engineers in technology development and research infrastructure management in the life sciences. Reflecting this mission, the symposium highlighted the importance of connecting and supporting technology developers across disciplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his keynote lecture, Geert Van Minnebruggen, Technology Director at <a href=\"https:\/\/vib.be\/en#\/\">VIB<\/a>, highlighted how technologies developed within research infrastructures often provide the basis for major scientific discoveries. The discovery of the structure of DNA relied, for example, on the work of X-ray crystallography expert Rosalind Franklin. He also emphasised the need for a greater recognition of research infrastructure scientists\u2019 contributions to scientific progress.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The importance of technological advances was further illustrated through a series of presentations by senior RI scientists and current and former ARISE and ARISE2 fellows. Showcasing their projects, the speakers demonstrated how their work supports scientific research and services across a wide range of fields, from data and computational sciences to imaging, structural biology, mechanical engineering, biotechnology, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During two lively panel discussions, representatives of partner organisations, ARISE fellows and EMBL group leaders explored the role of technology development in enabling scientific breakthroughs and addressed the need to create sustainable career pathways for technical experts \u2013 also a key focus of the ARISE programmes. As Disa Hammarl\u00f6f, Research Coordinator at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scilifelab.se\/\">SciLifeLab<\/a>, put it: \u201cWe need to highlight these alternate career trajectories and increase their visibility. This includes making sure that it is well understood what it means to be a technology developer and what impact you can have.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another key theme emerging from the panel discussions was the importance of building a sustainable community of technology developers. Participants pointed to the value of collaboration across disciplines and institutions, which is also central to ARISE\u2019s partnerships with external organisations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ARISE and ARISE2 work with a number of academic and non-academic partner organisations that contribute to the training and supervision of fellows. While partners in the initial ARISE programme mainly supported fellows during their secondments, some have taken on a more substantial role in ARISE2, becoming full collaborators and contributing funding to individual projects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe real value of programmes like ARISE lies not only in the technologies being developed and the knowledge being exchanged, but also in the community we build around research infrastructures and the recognition of this career path,\u201d said Silvie Van Den Hoecke, Senior Technologies Project Manager at VIB, reflecting on the symposium. \u201cBy connecting people across organisations and countries, we can learn from each other, tackle shared challenges, and turn our enthusiasm for technology development into impact through scientific collaboration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the scientific presentations and panel discussions, the event offered many opportunities for participants to network and explore potential collaborations during poster sessions, breaks, and meals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nermin Akduman, an ARISE2 fellow at EMBL Heidelberg, particularly valued learning about other fellows\u2019 projects and the work of experienced research infrastructure scientists from EMBL and partner organisations. \u201cI especially appreciated the opportunity to meet people working in different fields but facing similar challenges and sharing a common interest in advancing research infrastructures,\u201d she said. \u201cI hope to build on these connections in the future, as I believe they can benefit not only my own development but also my facility and the wider community we work with.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For ARISE alumni, the event also provided a chance to share their experience and reconnect with the community. \u201cThe ARISE community has a great convening power and can be tapped into on so many levels,\u201d reflected Christopher Thorpe, EMBL-EBI ARISE alumnus, now at University of Oxford. \u201cExperienced practitioners can share hands-on experience on running infrastructures at scale, fellows at different levels of their projects can (re)connect and renew conversations about potential collaborations, and experts on RI funding can support scaling up fellows\u2019 projects. Having a community that supports at all of these levels will act as a force multiplier on the experience of the fellowship and truly accelerate progress and practice.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe ARISE2 partnership event was the first of its kind, and it set a starting point for continued exchange and future collaborations across the ARISE network,\u201d said Tanja Ninkovic, Managing Director of ARISE implementing partner <a href=\"https:\/\/ricapacity.com\/\">RIcapacity<\/a>. \u201cI see it as a showcase for technology development in scientific services and research infrastructures, and I hope it can grow into a symposium on this important topic, encouraging technology development to become a part of how facilities grow.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ARISE and ARISE2 fellows, EMBL faculty, and research infrastructure scientists from ARISE partner organisations gathered to discuss
