Clinical Integrated Data Repositories

This page will be used to present materials on Integrated Data Repositories used for Clinical and Translational Research. This is a public facing home for the activities of the Integrated Data Repositories Affinity Group which was started as part of the National Institutes of Health Clinical and Translational Science Awards Informatics Key Function Committee. As a result, this section is less a wikipedia page and more a space to promote cross linkages and sharing.

Group Description: The Data Repositories Affinity Group provides a forum for collaboration and facilitation of the process of building and enhancing Integrated Data Repositories (IDRs) for Biomedical Research. We define an Integrated Data Repository, ultimately, as a large-scale database containing data from the full array of systems in a biomedical enterprise -- including clinical systems, life sciences (genomics / proteomics), research, billing, registries, clinical trial systems, and more. Most data repositories begin with some mix of these data resources and continue to grow in complexity and sources over time. The purpose of an IDR is to support a wide range of activities within a biomedical research enterprise, including but not limited to hypothesis testing, cohort development, comparative effectiveness, development of quality measures, genome / phenome matching, genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and general population based studies.

Our members include institutions that are in the early stages of repository development as well as many institutions that have already built data repositories and are seeking to enhance them. We conduct monthly conference calls and maintain a listserve for group use. For more information on how to join in the calls and listserv, visit: CTSA Central or email CTSA_Informatics@CTSAC4.org

Value of IDRs

Building IDRs often represents signficant initial investment and maintenance costs. To show the value, a list of studies showing research findings that would not be found without IDRs can be used. IDRPublicationList
