Research, innovation & data rights

Accelerating research while protecting citizen rights.

Cohort discovery, real extracts with a data-quality report, an immutable ledger — and a plain account of which citizen controls work today.

The cycle

Accelerating research while protecting citizen rights

Care generates evidence and evidence changes care. The loop only works if the person at the start of it can see where their data went and stop it.

Clinical care to population health to research to discovery to improved care, with genomics running through every stage.

What it supports

Research the platform is built to serve

  • Clinical research
  • Translational research
  • Learning health systems
  • Population and public health research
  • Genomic research
  • Precision medicine
  • Clinical trials feasibility
  • Real-world evidence

Federated cohort discovery

Feasibility counts across independent sites with aggregate-only results and small-number suppression. Nothing row-level leaves the source.

OMOP common data model

A real extract, not a manifest: person, observation period, visits, conditions, drug exposure and measurements, with a data-quality report and an unmapped-code list rather than a silent drop.

Immutable extract ledger

Every extract recorded with its file hashes, so what was released can be reconstructed years later.

Data rights

What a citizen should be able to do — and what they can today

This is the section where a platform is most tempted to describe its intentions. The right-hand column is the measured position.

Why publish this

Because the alternative is a claim that fails at the first information-governance review, and because these four are on the platform’s own defect register with the work named. A capability gap that is written down gets fixed; one that is marketed does not.
