Workshop on Health Data Management

Introduction

Based on the discussion at the last ABCP “每月一谈” (“Monthly Topical Discussion”) on 31st May, ABCP’s Specialty Committees on Life Science and Health, AI and Cyber Security and EDI Working Group are planning to organise a joint workshop on Health Data Management to allow ABCP members and non-members to discuss potential R&I collaboration on this topic.

The theme of the workshop will be around how health-related data can be collected, accessed, used and shared for different real-world applications and R&I activities, covering AI as a key enabling technology and data security and privacy as a key requirement and research topic.

The event will be held as an in-person event to allow more effective exchanges and discussions between participants, in the form of roundtable discussions towards future R&I collaboration and joint grant applications. Remote participation will be allowed for some sessions.

At the event, we will discuss relevant funding calls and participants’ potential responses to such calls. One such call is the EPSRC-NIHR NetworkPlus call on “Technologies to enable independence for people living with dementia” (webinar 5 July and deadline 10 September). Another call is the EPSRC call on “Health Technologies Connectivity Awards” (deadline 3 September). A third one is the EPSRC pre-announcement on “Engineering Healthier Environments – Micro Network and Micro Network Plus”.

To simplify the organisation of the event, we will order a sandwich-style lunch for all participants, which will be delivered to the meeting room. After the event, we recommend participants to split into smaller groups to have lunch/dinner separately (costs covered by themselves), which can help facilitate more follow-up discussions.

The event is mainly for ABCP Members, but we also welcome non-members to attend if they are interested in developing and/or supporting R&I activities related to health data management.
