Description

PHIRI aims to facilitate and support open, interconnected, and data-driven research through the sharing of COVID-19 population health information between countries and the exchange of best practices related to the collection, curation, processing, use, and reuse of data following the legal and ethical principles of research and the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-usable) principles.

The objectives of the project are:

  1. Provide a health information portal for COVID-19 with FAIR catalogues on health and healthcare data for the structured exchange of information between European countries.
  2. Provide structured cross-country exchange on COVID-19 best practices and insights.
  3. Promote interoperability and address healthcare information inequalities.

The IACS coordinates WP7 “Building a federated research infrastructure for a rapid policy response” (https://www.phiri.eu/wp7), providing the technological substrate to support the development of a federated research infrastructure and producing research findings for rapid policy response. The IACS is also promoting one of the use cases (WP6) dedicated to exploring the potential impact of COVID care on healthcare for patients with other conditions: specifically, the impact that reorganization may have had on the time from diagnosis to treatment in breast cancer patients.
