The more appropriate way of expressing the information now is using a classification or federated identifiers.
See below for a detailed list of changes.
Main features of CERIF
CERIF (the Common European Research Information Format) is:
- A concept about research entities and their relationships – Specification (Conceptual Level)
- A description of research entities and their relationships – Model (Logical Level)
- A formalization of research entities and their relationships – Database Scripts (Physical Level)

Update on forthcoming euroCRIS events
Following another successful euroCRIS membership meeting at the Izmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH) last Nov, the next euroCRIS event will be the 17th International Conference on Current Research Information Systems (CRIS2026). The CRIS2026 Conference will be held May 20-22 at the São Miguel Campus of the University of the Azores in Portugal. A call for proposals for contributions to the conference is currently open until 7 Feb 2026.
After that, the Autumn 2026 euroCRIS membership meeting will be held Nov 24-26 at Tecnalia in San Sebastian, Spain. This will be the first time a euroCRIS meeting is held at a Technology & Innovation Transfer Centre rather than at a University. A call for proposals for this SMM2026 event will be released in the summer.
