British Heart Foundation Data Science Centre - Monthly Lunchtime Webinar - June 2023 The BHF Data Science Centre is a partnership between Health Data Research UK and the British Heart Foundation that works to deliver the data and data science needed to address some of the most important challenges in heart and circulatory disease research. The Centre works with a wide range of partners including patients, public, clinicians, researchers and NHS organisations to help them carry out research using health data into the causes, prevention and treatment of all diseases of the heart and circulation (such as heart attacks, stroke and vascular dementia).

The BHF Data Science Centre holds a monthly webinar to provide updates about our work. For June's webinar we were joined by Dr Hoda Abbasizanjani and Fatemeh Torabi. Hoda is a Research Officer and Data Scientist at Population Data Science, Swansea University. She is also part of the Administrative Data Research Wales (ADR Wales) team. Fatemeh is a Senior Research Data Scientist, leading the research development towards requirements of federated health data as part of the joint partnership between Dementia Platform UK and Alzheimer's disease data initiative. Hoda and Fatemeh will talk about their work on reproducible data harmonisation, and will discuss challenges and lessons learnt from a UK-wide COVID-19 research collaboration.
