Health-RI

Health-RI promotes data-driven research, policy and innovation to improve the health of citizens and patients. To this end, Health-RI supports researchers and organisations by providing services and facilities. The organisation also collaborates at national and international level to build collective knowledge and facilitate the seamless exchange of data between countries. Health-RI aims to establish a national health data infrastructure.

Making dementia data FAIR

Together with ZonMw, Health-RI is working to make data in dementia research FAIR. Health-RI acts as an adviser within the DEMPACT project.

Health-RI provides training and shares knowledge to help researchers and data stewards in the field of dementia make data FAIR (including in ZonMw-funded projects). Health-RI also provides advice on applying the FAIR data principles, encourages and supports data reuse, and assists in the development of a data infrastructure for dementia data, including metadata protocols and data harmonisation. This helps ensure that applicants for ZonMw funding meet the requirements relating to FAIR data.
