Project description

Secure framework to transform disease detection and treatment

Advanced technology provides the tools to unlock previously unattainable insights, transforming how healthcare is approached. The EU-funded HEREDITARY project aims to develop a secure framework that integrates diverse health data, including genetic information, while ensuring compliance with privacy regulations to advance disease detection and treatment. The project consists of five interconnected layers, using federated data processing and semantic integration. By applying advanced analytics, it will identify new risk factors and treatment responses for neurodegenerative and gut microbiome-related disorders. Additionally, the project connects various clinical, genomic, and environmental data sources, deepening the understanding of these diseases and enabling more effective treatment strategies. It ensures that patients and the public play a central role in guiding research.

Objective

HEREDITARY aims to significantly transform the way we approach disease detection, prepare treatment response, and explore medical knowledge by building a robust, interoperable, trustworthy and secure framework that integrates multimodal health data (including genetic data) while ensuring compliance with cross-national privacy-preserving policies. The HEREDITARY framework comprises five interconnected layers, from federated data processing and semantic data integration to visual interaction. By utilizing advanced federated analytics and learning workflows, we aim to identify new risk factors and treatment responses focusing, as exploratory use cases, on neurodegenerative and gut microbiome related disorders.
HEREDITARY is harmonizing and linking various sources of clinical, genomic, and environmental data on a large scale. This enables clinicians, researchers, and policymakers to understand these diseases better and develop more effective treatment strategies. HEREDITARY adheres to the citizen science paradigm to ensure that patients and the public have a primary role in guiding scientific and medical research while maintaining full control of their data.
Our goal is to change the way we approach healthcare by unlocking insights that were previously impossible to obtain.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
