Pure Wiki

Welcome to the Pure Wiki of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. Pure is the Current Research Information System (CRIS) used at our university. In this wiki you'll find the most up-to-date documentation and guidelines for using the system.

Pure is managed by the Research Information and Data Management team (RIDM), which is part of the R&D department at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. Our team also provides training and support to all users at the university.

All VUB employees have access to Pure, while visitors can consult most content through the portal.
