Addressing Data Challenges for the Next Generation of Digital Therapeutics Development

Lisbon, April 22-23

The Human Colossus Foundation presented its "Dynamic Data Economy” design for healthcare during a two-day workshop at the esteemed Champalimaud Foundation in Lisbon, Portugal. This concept holds immense potential for a patient-centric future of healthcare.
The "Addressing Data Challenges for the Next Generation of Digital Therapeutics Development" event delved into the complexities and opportunities surrounding data in healthcare.
Key discussions revolved around several critical facets, including:
Privacy and Cybersecurity: Ensuring robust measures to protect sensitive healthcare data from unauthorised access or breaches.
Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs): Implementing advanced tools and techniques to enhance data privacy without compromising utility.
Synthetic Data Generation: Exploring the potential of synthetic data as a means to preserve privacy while enabling broader data access for research and innovation.
Ethical Considerations: Incorporating ethical frameworks to guide the responsible collection, use, and sharing of healthcare data.
Health Data Infrastructure: Upgrading existing infrastructure to support the seamless exchange and interoperability of healthcare data across various systems.
Secured Access to Biobanks: Developing protocols and mechanisms to ensure secure access to biobanks for clinical and research purposes.
Economic and Organisational Challenges: Addressing the financial and structural barriers that hinder effectively utilising healthcare data for transformative purposes.

We are looking forward for practical implementation of DDE in patients journey and helping shaping future of the patient data flows 

We thanks the Champalimaud Foundation, Joe Paton, John Krakauer, and their organising team, Alexander Loktyushin, Eric Lacosse, and João Santinha, for hosting the event and creating a synergetic data-centric forum with a human-centric approach.
