💡The second session of the joint @EOSC4Cancer and @tehdas workshop on the EHDS and Cancer Data is a panel discussion on bringing the EHDS into cancer research
💬 The featured speakers will offer different perspectives on the implementation of the EHDS into cancer research
🧩 Within the @tehdas project, we are helping implement the #EHDS by developing concrete guidelines and technical specifications for secondary use of #healthdata.
📝Join our public consultation and share feedback on the first draft documents by 28 Feb! tehdas.eu/public-consultatio…

🚀🇪🇺 Big news! @EUCouncil has adopted the #EHDS Regulation, following the @EUparliament's approval in December. Next steps: formal signing, publication in the EU's Official Journal and implementation.
New EU law on #EuropeanHealthDataSpace:
🔐 allows people to better control & access their health data anywhere in the EU
🔬 provides secure, anonymised data for research & policymaking
🔄 introduces common rules for electronic health records

We were glad to be at the @DataSaves_Lives 5th anniversary event today! Our head of unit @Nienke_Schutte was leading a workshop on how to protect patient data while demystifying #healthdata processing for secondary use ( = for #research, innovation, policy making). #DSL5
Replying to @DataSaves_Lives
Workshop 2 will explore how electronic records enhance #PatientSafety and #data security.
We’re discussing cutting-edge technologies, like federated learning, digital twins & synthetic data to boost health literacy and protect #patient rights.

Another @sciensano colleague was also present at the event: @WannesVanHoof, who is specialist in patients and citizen engagement as well as in ethical issues, was participating in a panel discussion on the importance of key stakeholders’ dialogue in building trust.
🔆 Last snapshot from #EPH2024, about a great presentation from our colleague @SM_Cosgrove, on applying #foresight methods in the field of substance use, highlighting the experience from the DRUG-PREP project in which @sciensano is a partner.

Final session of the day for the team at #EPH2024, with this great @sciensano session on #healthdata linkages. 🧵
We also had the pleasure to have @tolonen_hanna presenting a study performed in the @JA_InfAct project, on data linkage and #artificialintelligence practices across European countries.
