To assist secondary data users in understanding the real-world impact of health and medical research data sharing, the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) has created an online guide that outlines a theoretical framework for four key data reuse scenarios. This practical guide was extracted from research papers, and consultation with stakeholders and the research community.
With Health Data Australia, researchers can explore descriptions of data from our publishing partners, identify relevant datasets, and request access. These requests will then be forwarded to the data owner for review.
