HealthData@EU Pilot

The European Health Data Space (EHDS) pilot project (HealthData@EU pilot) was set up to create and test a first version of the European Health Data Space for secondary use.

The EHDS sought to address the challenges associated with health data sharing in the EU – such as lack of interoperability and unclear legal systems – by establishing a health data sharing framework that will benefit patients, healthcare professionals, researchers, policy makers, and industry.

EBRAINS was part of the consortium which built the first version of the future European Health Data Space (EHDS) and contributed as a data provider platform, IT infrastructure; it supported the project by providing IT security, metadata catalogues, data quality and interoperability.
