Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur für personenbezogene Gesundheitsdaten (nfdi4health)

„The National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) has the objective to systematically index, edit, interconnect and make available the valuable stock of data from science and research. So far, these data have mostly been available in a decentralized, project-related, or temporary form. The federation and the states funds the NFDI jointly. Digital data storage is an indispensable prerequisite for treating new research issues, generating findings, and making innovations. “

We are a partner of nfdi4health, one of the initiatives supported in the first round. This is about the fusion of epidemiological, public health and clinical research: A multidisciplinary team of scientists is to establish a research data infrastructure for personal health data in Germany.

 

Our tasks lie in the following areas:

  • Data Stewardship, prototype connection of nfdi4health to a university location
  • Development of training materials for research data management in the context of health data
  • User research

Project start is October 2020.
