The Open Data Institute (ODI) equip, connect and inspire people around the world to innovate with data. Co-founded by Sir Tim Berners-Lee and Sir Nigel Shadbolt, the ODI provides events, training, membership and consultancy around open data.
An EPFL laboratory has developed Datashare Network, a decentralized search engine paired with a secure messaging system that allows investigative journalists to exchange information securely and anonymously.
The growing number of digital health devices and apps presents healthcare organizations with an opportunity to use the resulting data and improve their outcomes. This requires, however, a need to build and manage integrations to acquire this data. Validic solves this challenge by providing a one-to-many connection to digital health technologies.
Validic is a cloud-based technology platform that connects patient-recorded data from digital health applications, devices and wearables to key healthcare companies like hospital
systems, providers, pharmaceutical companies, payers, health information technology platforms, health clubs and wellness companies. With access to this information, Validic’s clients can accelerate their strategic healthcare initiatives — from patient engagement and population management to care coordination, wellness programs and more.
The Open Access Directory (OAD) is a compendium of simple factual lists about open access (OA) to science and scholarship, maintained by the OA community at large. By bringing many OA-related lists together in one place, OAD makes it easier for everyone to discover them, use them for reference, and update them. The easier they are to maintain and discover, the more effectively they can spread useful, accurate information about OA.
WHO’s Zika app aims to provide essential information on Zika virus disease and its suspected complications. Designed primarily for health care workers and responders, the app can also be a source of real-time information for the general public. Download and use the app is on IOS or android platforms and have easy-to-use information at your fingertips. In addition to information on on Zika virus diseases, microcephaly and other suspected complications, you can download WHO’s technical guidance and other useful resources, follow ongoing Zika related-research and development, stay updated about the latest news, and follow the international response to Zika. New content, including trainings will be added to the app in weeks to come.
The Zika in Brazil Real Time Analysis (Zibra), a project that went through six towns of the Northeast with a mobile laboratory of genomic analysis, to conduct research on molecular epidemiology of zika virus, was in Salvador on Sunday (12/06). Partnership result between Fiocruz Bahia, Evandro Chagas Institute, Ministry of Health and universities in the UK, Canada and Australia, the goal of Zibra is to expand the genomic mapping of the virus to determine the origin, genetic diversity, and epidemiological aspects, helping in combating the epidemic, during a public health emergency.
