• SINAPSE
  The main and general objective of SINAPSE e-network is to make better use of scientific knowledge in policy making. SINAPSE is open to all scientists, scientific organisations and anyone with an interest in science.
  
  In line with the efforts undertaken to develop new forms of governance, SINAPSE should facilitate the involvement of actors that cannot, at present, easily be consulted or share their knowledge/viewpoint. As a tool facilitating exchange of information within the scientific community and other actors concerned by science, SINAPSE will help in developing the European Research Area.
