Initial research protocol for re-using and re-analysing GENNOVATE data

Lopez, D.E.; Rietveld, A. (2024)Initial research protocol for re-using and re-analysing GENNOVATE data. 51 p.

To allow re-using the GENNOVATE data for purposes distinct to those from the original research objectives and for re-analysing the GENNOVATE data, an anonymized derived dataset was developed. This includes 108 case studies from 23 GENNOVATE countries.

This protocol explains the rationale and methods used for data anonymization. The data curation, anonymization and obfuscation are necessary steps into making GENNOVATE data FAIR. Other steps include data management according to regulations and best practices; and setting up a system that ensures compliance with the highest ethical and legal standards.
