Get access to big data through federated analysis

  • Promote access to real-life health data and use of state-of-the-art analytical tools
  • Increase analysis robustness and accelerate cross-institutional collaborations
  • Work in an environment ensuring data privacy and security

The Medical Informatics Platform (MIP) is designed to help clinicians, clinical scientists, and clinical data scientists aiming to adopt advanced analytics for clinical research. Users can explore harmonized medical data extracted from pre-processed neuroimaging, neurophysiological and medical records and research cohort datasets without transferring original clinical data.


The Medical Informatics Platform (MIP) supports the development of disease-oriented federations for hospitals and (medical) research centers that wish to engage in collaborations, share data without transferring them, and perform federated analysis of large-scale distributed clinical datasets. 

For each federation, clinical researchers create specific data models based on well-accepted common data elements (CDE), approved by all participating centers. The MIP team provide support to the centers to facilitate coordination and communication and assist in the creation of these data models.
