How does data help researchers?
How does your data help new breakthroughs in healthcare?
Data is vital to our treatment and care as a patient. Accurate, up to date and relevant data is also vital for research into new treatments. All of the drugs, treatments and medical technology we rely on in the NHS today are only available because data from people just like you was able to be used for research.

Data Access Committee
As part of our development of the East Midlands Secure Data Environment, we will be setting up a Data Access Committee.
A Data Access Committee is made up of independent experts and members of our local communities who have the interestes of the public and patients in mind.
The Committee will make sure that access to patient data for research carried out by NHS staff, universities, and other organisations from the public and private sectors is safe, legal, ethical and transparent.
We will shortly be inviting applications from people interested in serving on our Data Access Committee. All of the details will be published here.
In the meantime if you would like to contact us about getting involved in developing the East Midlands Secure Data Environment, please email us.
