Turn Data into Insights

Enable reproducible research and policy outputs.

Share Safely

Use disclosure control and governed sharing.

Compliant by Design

Meet applicable GDPR/EHDS/national controls with auditability.

Greater Impact

Move approved insights toward publication, policy and innovation.

End-to-End Flow

Analyze

Approved datasets in secure environment

Review & Validate

Disclosure, statistical and methodological review

Generate Results

Aggregates, summaries and reports

Share & Publish

Authorized data/report/regulatory output

Real-World Impact

Evidence, policy, planning and innovation

Output Types

Aggregated Statistics

Counts, rates, trends and effect estimates.

Cohort Characteristics

Approved aggregate demographics and clinical features.

Study Reports

Tables, figures and validated reports.

Regulatory Submissions

Approved CDISC or authority packages.

Approved Datasets

Pseudonymized datasets only when explicitly authorized.

Scientific Publications

Manuscripts, posters and presentations after disclosure review.

MQL Example

mqlCopy

# Conceptual FUTURE MQL aggregate output
FIND Patient WITHIN cohort "t2d-v1"
ANALYZE BY age_group
  METRICS count(), mean(HbA1c)
OUTPUT aggregate

MQL is future/planned; syntax remains conceptual.

FHIR Bulk Data Example

httpCopy

# Authorized bulk export pattern — capability/profile dependent
GET /fhir/$export?_type=Patient,Condition,Observation&_outputFormat=application/fhir+ndjson
Authorization: Bearer <research-scoped-token>

Bulk export must be tied to approved scope and output policy. Never expose unrestricted production export.

Sharing Example

httpCopy

# Illustrative governed research report submission
POST /v1/research/reports
Authorization: Bearer <token>

{
  "studyId":"study_2026_001",
  "reportType":"regulatory_submission",
  "destination":"authorized-health-authority"
}

Illustrative route; sharing destinations, agreements and output controls are governance-dependent.

Governance & Compliance

Research authorization and purpose-of-use

GDPR/EHDS/national legal framework as applicable

Disclosure control and re-identification risk assessment

Data sharing agreements and contractual restrictions

Ethics/regulatory approvals where applicable

Immutable audit and result lineage

Production Readiness

Use cases and data models validated

Security/privacy controls tested

FHIR/OMOP/CDISC conformance checks complete as relevant

Sandbox tests with representative non-production data

Monitoring/incident response configured

Operational runbooks and support in place

Output-review process staffed and documented
