This event was co-hosted with HDR UK, and explored the challenges in finding and accessing representative data and, crucially, how to overcome them. We hears about HDR UK’s work across data infrastructure, technology to improve access, and inclusion, with a particular focus on:
The Health Data Research Gateway which is HDR UK’s online platform to help researchers find health datasets,
The Cohort Discovery Tool to help researchers determine the size of the population relevant to their research question,
The Safe People Registry to streamline researcher verification for secure data access.
We also discussed ideas for new tools and resources to help researchers in finding representative data. This will be a chance to connect across organisations, learn from work already underway, and shape how we build more inclusive data systems for health research.
