Live-recording of an Event that took place at University of Vienna on February 27th 2025.

The processing and sharing of health data is necessary to advance research of various diseases and health conditions as well as an inseparable part of personalized medicine and the concept of digital health. The European Data Strategy is taking shape with the imminent entry into force of new legal acts, such as the Data Act, Data Governance Act and European Health Data Space. These legislations bring changes to the national healthcare systems and data sharing infrastructures.The aim of this event is to bring together stakeholders in Austria, including researchers, hospitals, clinical practitioners, biobanks, data repositories, Austrian health ministry representatives and policymakers, to discuss the legal landscape, opportunities and challenges surrounding secondary use of health data.Link: https://id.univie.ac.at/news-und-events/detailansicht-news-und-events/news/new-era-for-health-data-secondary-use-of-data-in-the-ehds-and-dga-and-its-implementation-in-europe/
