Abstract: InfraScience is a research group of the National Research Council of Italy - Institute of Information Science and Technologies (CNR - ISTI) based in Pisa, Italy. This report documents the research activity performed by this group in 2020 to highlight the major results. In particular, the InfraScience group confronted with research challenges characterising Data Infrastructures, e\-Sci\-ence, and Intelligent Systems. The group activity is pursued by closely connecting research and development and by promoting and supporting open science. In fact, the group is leading the development of two large scale infrastructures for Open Science, \ie D4Science and OpenAIRE. During 2020 InfraScience members contributed to the publishing of 30 papers, to the research and development activities of 12 research projects (11 funded by EU), to the organization of conferences and training events, to several working groups and task forces.
