DataRiver is proud to participate in the TI4PEC – Advancing Pediatric Emergency Care through Privacy-Preserving Federated Analytics project, CUP: C93C23008220007, funded by the Eurostars3 CoD 05 funding program, a joint programming initiative within the European Partnership for Innovative SMEs, established by the European Union’s Horizon Europe Framework Program for Research and Innovation.

TI4PEC is a collaborative project which aims to overcome a key barrier in effective clinical research: the lack of large, international, collaborative data pipelines from complex health data. TI4PEC plans to tackle this issue through the development, deployment, and validation of a privacy-preserving federated learning platform for patient-centere research in pediatric emergency medicine. It will combine state-of-the-art interoperability techniques to address the challenges inherent to the use of routine electronic medical data, and cutting-edge privacy-preserving technologies to ensure compliance with international data protection regulations, thu developing a robust blueprint for its use in other collaborative clinical research applications.

TI4PEC will be instrumental to enable clinical research based on routinely collected clinical data from Electronic Health Records (EHR) in Pediatric Emergency Care (PEC) at a global scale. Unlocking the full potential of EHR data from the Emergency Department (ED) by overcoming existing challenges around data interoperability and sharin will significantly impact the development/refinement of preventive and treatment strategies to improve healt outcomes of the vulnerable population of acutely ill and injured children across countries and continents.[
