EOSC Future is helping to implement a first-of-its-kind federated virtual environment that provides concerted added value to the everyday work of researchers in all domains. User input is essential to test out this ambitious vision.
In light of this, the EOSC Future User Group has been set up to collect first-hand feedback on the EOSC user experience. The selected users and providers are helping us gauge the accuracy and usability of EOSC products, services and systems to ensure that the platform is fit for purpose and intuitive.
Between October 2021 and September 2023, the User Group will complete the following core activities:
- testing out and refining EOSC services/products
- completing 4-5 surveys
- participating in annual focus groups
- EOSC Future testbeds.
