In a rapidly evolving biomedical research landscape, managing and governing data and biological samples are essential for ensuring their ethical use, long-term value, and security. To address these needs, Ecraid Foundation and ESCMID, in collaboration with CERCLE and TGHN, are offering a free online course on Data and Sample Governance for Biomedical Research.
Participants will engage in four free discovery learning modules that include real-world scenarios, case studies, and interactive exercises to build their understanding of data and sample governance frameworks, policies, and ethical and legal considerations. In addition, we will host end-of-course discussions with experts on the topics that course participants would like to explore in more detail.
The data and sample governance course is financed by the EU-funded ECRAID-Base project, which receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme (grant agreement 965313).
Join a 1-hour introductory webinar to learn about current challenges in AI approaches to biomedical research and a the ECRAID-ESCMID Data and Sample Governance for Biomedical Research course, organised in collaboration with CERCLE, CoMeCT, MORU, IDDO and The Global Health Network.
Biomedical AI experts will discuss current challenges and a way forward for ethical, equitable AI applications in health research. Webinar participants will have a chance to exchange with speakers and learn about the Data and Governace course structure and content, which cover a range of essential concepts for developing and scaling responsible, proportional governance for biomedical data and samples.
Join to engage with AI in biomedical research experts, clarify course expectations, and set the stage for advancing your data and sample governance skills to enusure ethical, equitable data and sample reuse in support of global health and infectious disease research.
