Infrastructure organization
The SciLifeLab national infrastructure is organized into ten platforms, each of which comprises a number of units that provide technologies and services to users. Each platform is managed by a Platform Director (PD) and is coordinated by a Platform Coordination Officer (PCO). For each Unit, a Head of Unit (HU) is in charge of the daily operations. In addition, most units have an associated Platform Scientific Director (PSD) that is part of the Platform Management Group (PMG), and serves as a scientific expert of the technologies offered by the corresponding unit.
The platform structure is different from the service areas in the infrastructure navigation for users. Many units offer multi-application technologies and services that may be sorted under more than one service area.
