EBRAINS is part of the consortium selected for European Health Data Space pilot project

EBRAINS is pleased to announce that it has been chosen to be part of a consortium which will build the first version of the future European Health Data Space (EHDS).

The pilot project – which is led by the French Health Data Hub – has been set up to practically validate the proposal for the EHDS that the European Commission published on 3 May 2022.

The EHDS will seek 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.
