IDERHA spotlight article on IHI website
We are pleased to share the spotlight article IHI has published on IDERHA: ‘New IHI project IDERHA to use big data to advance lung cancer care’.
Recent years have seen an explosion in the generation of health data from sources as diverse as digital technologies, patient-reported outcome measures, clinical trials, and routine clinical care. This data has the potential to help advance both research and patient care. However, accessing, integrating and analysing it is extremely challenging.
Enter IDERHA, one of the first Innovative Health Initiative projects to get up and running. The aim of IDERHA is to set up an EU-wide health data platform that will facilitate the access to and analysis of diverse types of health data. The platform will link up multiple public and private data sources and put in place interoperable tools and services that will make it possible for key groups to use the data.
