Research networks

EHDS

The European Health Data Space (EHDS) is an initiative launched by the European Commission. The purpose is to create an IT infrastructure making it possible to share and use health data for research, healthcare, and innovation across the EU.

CONNECT is one of the Danish contributors to the EHDS2 Pilot together with the Danish Health Data Authority. In the pilot project, 17 collaborators from across the EU will build a test version of the EHDS.

ENCePP

DCE is a long-time member of the European Network of Centres for Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacovigilance (ENCePP), launched by the EMA. The network aims to strengthen the monitoring of post-marketed medical products in Europe.

DCE represented academia in the ENCePP Steering Group in the 2017-2019 term and continues to actively participate by contributing to several working groups developing methodological guidelines for pharmacoepidemiology and pharmacovigilance.

Furthermore, DCE is listed in the HMA-EMA Catalogues of real-world data sources and studies and can be found here.

INCLEN
