Join us for a Webinar Series on European Health Data Space Regulation

The Microsoft-Universitat de València Chair for Privacy and Digital Transformation, the CHAIMELEON Project and the EUCAIM Project organise the event “Health Research and secondary uses: Facing European Health Data Space Regulation”. It is based on online working groups developed through webinars and a final hybrid event.

The aim of this activity  will be to discuss the requirements for future health or healthcare research and secondary use of data activities. In addition, the European Regulation on the Health Data Space, which is now in the procedural phase, needs to be considered. To achieve the best results, we propose to organise sectoral panels and a closing session. Each of the panels should be led by two people and will be carried out online. The final event would take place in Madrid at the headquarters of the European Union. 

This activity is intended to be deployed in two stages. The first one will be carried out through a set of webinars with the aim of analysing relevant aspects of the future European Health Data Space Regulation. These panels, which will be recorded and transcribed, seek to obtain relevant information from experts and the community of recipients and beneficiaries of the regulation. Each of them will generate a summary document. 

The activity will conclude with a hybrid meeting in which the results obtained will be shared and the impact of the regulation will be addressed from the points of view of different stakeholders.

Online satellite events

Each of these satellite events will be structured as follows:

  1. The panellists will have to summarise their positions for a total of one hour, with speaking time allocated according to the number of speakers.
  2. The second hour will be devoted to an open discussion among experts. The main purpose of the discussion shall never be to ask questions or to raise doubts. We seek to obtain opinions, contributions and comments that will enrich our knowledge.
  3. An online space will be opened in Teams to allow all attendees to formulate written considerations in the following three days.
  4. Each of the contributions made will be considered and included in the report to be prepared by the chair and coordinated by the scientific secretary.

Final Hybrid Event 

This event should include experts from all the sectors involved and, above all, researchers, governments and data protection authorities. The profile of the experts should include the areas of privacy, artificial intelligence, security, data science, ethics and governance, among others.  Within this framework, a seminar is designed with the following objectives:

  1. To define the requirements that data lakes for health research should meet, taking into account, the current legislation and the developing framework.
  2. To reflect on the strategic definition of data governance frameworks.
  3. To consider the state of progress of the European Regulation proposed by the Commission.
