We are excited to announce that the new e-learning platform for ASSURED training is being tested by experts from the research community!

The German Science Council has released their evaluation on the NFDI. It recommends continued funding and structural adjustments to strengthen the data infrastructure with a focus on high-quality data services and streamlined governance.

We are pleased to announce that the Joint Science Conference (GWK) has decided to continue funding GHGA, along with all nine consortia from the first NFDI funding round.

Recommended by the NFDI Expert Committee for continued support and backed by the new coalition's commitment to permanent NFDI development, GHGA is set to advance a secure, FAIR human genomic data infrastructure.

GHGA members participated in key conferences, engaging with diverse communities on topics ranging from European genomic data infrastructure and secure processing environments to systems medicine and research data management.

Five NFDI consortia met in Heidelberg to explore synergies in biomedical data management, laying the groundwork for long-term cooperation to improve the management of complex biomedical data.

At the EOSC Symposium and the Nextflow Summit, GHGA members strengthened collaborations, shared expertise, and engaged with international experts on advancing FAIR principles and scalable bioinformatics solutions.

GHGA and NFDI4Health will intensify their collaboration to develop new opportunities for data analyses that will advance the scientific exploitation of personal health data and eventually improve population health.

Participating actively in two conferences in September, CoRDI and GCB, GHGA members networked closely with the research data infrastructure and bioinformatics communities.

ELSA Workshop "Anonymization and Data Trusteeship" in Berlin with participation of GHGA Director Prof Eva Winkler, who gave a presentation on 'Ethical Trust Concepts in Medicine and their Implications'.

NFDI4Health, NFDI4Microbiota and GHGA welcome the recommendations of the German Science and Humanities Council on digitisation and data use for health research and care, and drafted a joint response (German only).

Under the umbrella of the Berlin Science Week, the FOKUS and NFDI e.V. organized a virtual science slam for NFDI consortia to introduce themselves and their work around research data infrastructure to the general public.
