    Community members can join and create working groups to network, interact and collaborate with a specific community of interest within the larger LifeWatch Italy family. Members can also share, discover, find and promote targeted opportunities relevant to researchers and research infrastructures operating in the field of biodiversity and ecosystems.

    In addition, the Directory of Scientific Skills tailor-made search tool allows to filter through dozens of specific scientific skills to narrow down your search and connect with members working in the selected fields.
