Our communities of special interest help us shape researcher-led data activities and support a connected and collaborative data community.
These six groups of data experts are each led by a key member of the data community and focus on one of the following research data challenge areas:
health systems data
spatial biology data
data and samples reuse
public involvement and diversity
data and compute infrastructure
training and careers
Their support helps us deliver our research data strategy by guiding our delivery of services and solutions that enable researchers to take data-intensive approaches in their work.
Explore our research data strategyThis new forum brings together expertise from NHS England, researchers, third sector organisations and people affected by cancer to improve access, quality and timeliness of cancer health system data.
The collaborative aims to improve patient outcomes through data linkage, data pooling and sharing of knowledge, giving the public confidence in their use of data.
