OpenIRIS

What is OpenIRIS?

OpenIRIS is a platform for better visibility and booking of research equipment and services. It enables the efficient utilisation of scientific resources and facilitates cross-institutional access to equipment. In the long term, OpenIRIS at Humboldt-Universit?t zu Berlin will serve as a central point of contact for the targeted search for instruments, facilitate cross-institutional access to equipment and thus strengthen the networking of the research landscape on campus.

Further information on OpenIRIS and the current implementation status at Humboldt-Universit?t zu Berlin can be found on the intranet.
