Dont miss the annual international meetings of the Brain Connectivity Workshop and the BrainModes conference!
Brain Connectivity Workshop BrainModesHosted in a different country every year, these events are a great opportunity to meet leading experts from computational neuroscience, neuroscience methodology and experimental neuroscience!
Join us at Meet-the-Data
Berlin, Germany
Petra Ritter and Michael Schirner will be holding a Meet-the-Data webinar on July 9th from 16:00 to 16:45 on "Secondary use of data via EBRAINS". For data holders, the series offers the opportunity to highlight the uniqueness and value of their datasets. At the same time, interested researchers will gain valuable insights into the datasets and the application process, as well as the opportunity to network. Each webinar consists of a 20-minute presentation followed by a Q&A session.
Human brain data such as single-subject radiological images, e.g. MRI, contain biometric information and are health data according the EU GDPR and other legislations. Managing and sharing such data requires demonstration of data privacy compliance by the persons who determine the purpose of processing such data. Compliance implies that the appropriate technical and organizational measures are in place to protect the rights of the data subjects. We will present how EBRAINS Health Data Cloud enables discovery of non-sensitive metadata characterizing such health data sets via a public Knowledge Graph while the sensitive data stays protected and is made accessible for secondary research use exclusively when a sequence of legally required steps have been successfully passed. While the process is more complex than just receiving data per button click, it enables the secondary use of health data for research purposes while the protection the rights of the data subjects is maintained.
