Data Science and Analytics Platform
The Data Science and Analytics Platform occupies a distinct position within the ASPIRE Precision Medicine Research Institute *Abu Dhabi. While other platforms and research themes generate data, this platform focuses on data analysis, producing metadata and preliminary conclusions. It serves as a bridge connecting all other platforms and research projects. The data across platforms and research themes are diverse, coming from various sources, types, and governed by different institutions. To integrate this data, we aim to develop a novel governance structure, ensuring collaboration amongst all data providers.
