The SciLifeLab and Wallenberg National Program for Data-Driven Life Science (DDLS) is building a national Data Platform. The Data Platform acts as a hub for data-driven life science research. It offers access to services and resources that promote the exchange and reuse of scientific outputs (e.g. data, code, methods) in accordance with the principles of Open Science and FAIR. The four Data Science Nodes (DSNs) within the DDLS program contribute services, resources, and best practice guidance relevant to their scientific area to the Data Platform.

The Data Science Node in Epidemiology and Biology of Infection (DSN-EBI), hosted by Umeå University, is seeking input from the community to identify priorities for its operations.

We invite you to submit a brief three-page proposal on the national data services needed in the field of epidemiology and biology of infection. This is your opportunity to help advance Swedish data-driven life science, and make a lasting impact on national data services in this research area. Please find more information here. Please note that this is the first of many future opportunities to share your ideas about national data services with us.

Feel free to contact us to discuss your ideas for this or future needs inventories. We are here to support the epidemiology and infection community in Sweden.
