AbstractThis article investigates the unfolding of increased political interest in research infrastructure at the practical level. As a case study, I examine the European Commission’s (EC) Human Brain Project (HBP). The HBP is a large-scale interdisciplinary project that aims to build a web-accessible digital research infrastructure for neuroscience, medical research, and information technology. The project provides a unique study case for observing interdisciplinary interaction within a large-scale project for infrastructure building in brain science, where small-scale research has been the norm. I analyze how the stances of the EC and the HBP members on the project’s goal and organization have co-evolved by focusing on the project’s two radical reorientations. Thus, I describe the HBP’s tangled trajectory as the result of the project’s shifting definition between research and infrastructure construction or between politics, science, and engineering.KEYWORDS: Research infrastructureEuropean commissionhuman brain projectboundary workepistemic cultures Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Cramer and Hallonsten, Big science and research infrastructures in europe.2 DG-RESEARCH, Developing World-Class Research Infrastructures for the European Research Area (ERA).3 Moskovko, Ástvaldsson, and Hallonsten, “Who Is ERIC?”4 ESFRI, “ESFRI Roadmap.”5 Hallonsten, “Unpreparedness and Risk in Big Science Policy.”6 EU, “Council Regulation (EC) No 723/2009 of 25 June 2009 on the Community Legal Framework for a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC).”7 Hallonsten, Big Science Transformed.8 Hackett, The Handbook of Science and Technology Studies.9 Knorr-Cetina, Epistemic Cultures.10 Chompalov, Genuth, and Shrum, “The Organization of Scientific Collaborations.”11 Swedlow, “Three Cultural Boundaries of Science, Institutions, and Policy.”12 Bucher et al., “Contestation about Collaboration.”13 Gieryn, “Boundary-Work and the Demarcation of Science from Non-Science.”14 Bucher et al., “Contestation about Collaboration.”15 Lewis and Bartlett, “Inscribing a Discipline.”16 Fujimura, “Constructing ‘Do-able’ Problems in Cancer Research.”17 Langley et al., “Boundary Work Among Groups, Occupations, and Organizations”18 Palmer, “Weak Information Work and ‘Doable’ Problems in Interdisciplinary Science”; Penders, Horstman, and Vos, “Large-Scale Research and the Goal of Health.”19 Penders, Horstman, and Vos, “Large-Scale Research and the Goal of Health.”20 Lassen, Bønnelycke, and Otto, “Innovating for ‘Active Ageing’ in a Public – Private Innovation Partnership.”21 Baylac-Paouly, “Vaccine Development as a ‘Doable Problem’.”22 Hilgartner, “Constituting Large-Scale Biology.”23 Lewis and Bartlett, “Inscribing a Discipline.”24 Corbin and Strauss, Basics of qualitative research.25 Charmaz, Constructing grounded theory, Chapter 2.26 When quoting the interviews, I cited the interviewees by their discipline (e.g., “HPC2”).27
