About the pilot project
The EHDS2 Pilot project will bring together national data permit authorities, public health infrastructures and health research infrastructures, in order to enable linking and integrating data between data sources. This pilot project is a major first step that will allow practical validation of this concept i.e. the access to health data in Europe. 

The EHDS2 Pilot project is very important because it taps into the wealth of health data which today is fragmented across Europe and research has difficulty to access this data for science.
