European Life Sciences R&I Data Assembly
INITIATIVE See full glossary → Research, Technology & Industrial Capacity See full glossary →
The assembly will be a key governance instrument under the EU’s new Life Sciences Strategy. It will bring together Member State authorities responsible for data, AI, and R&I with relevant EU bodies to tackle fragmentation, support consistent interpretation of legal data frameworks, and improve cross-regulatory coordination. By aligning approaches across domains such as the EHDS, Data Governance Act, and AI Act, the Assembly will create a more coherent data environment for life science research and innovation, enabling breakthroughs in genomics, personalised medicine, One Health, and biodiversity through shared, interoperable datasets and harmonised rules.
