BREATHE: Health Data Research Hub for Respiratory Health
BREATHE is one of seven Health Data Research Hubs set up across the UK. Coordinated by Health Data Research UK (HDR UK), the Hubs are part of a four-year £37.5million investment from UK Research and Innovation's Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund, to enable the safe and responsible use of health-related data at scale for research and innovation.
We want to make respiratory health better by changing the way the NHS, researchers, industry and charities use data.
BREATHE will help navigate respiratory health data sets from across the UK, creating a digital resource where trained, approved experts can access data safely and responsibly, on an unprecedented scale.
We are working closely with patients and the public to ensure that data is used transparently and for the benefit of those living with respiratory conditions in the UK.
