High-value research, particularly in fields such personalized health, relies on high-quality data, and tools to find and process these data. Achieving this in accordance with European values requires that data are processed ethically, and in a way that respects the rights of data subjects.
We will present our experiences of setting up an international network for epidemiological studies across the life of individuals, and associated challenges in the implementation of European Health Data Spaces.
