Legal Assessment Tool (LAT) - interactive help for data sharing
0 likes150 views
The document details a legal assessment tool developed for ensuring legal interoperability among various biological and medical data bridges. It discusses the adaptation of computer science concepts to establish legal requirements and presents five usage scenarios to demonstrate this approach. Additionally, it outlines a survey-based tool to help researchers understand applicable legal and ethical regulations regarding data sharing.
Legal Assessment Tool (LAT) - interactive help for data sharing
- 1. Legal Assessment Tool Wolfgang Kuchinke (HHU Düsseldorf) Heinrich-Heine Universität Düsseldorf EUDAT Sensitive Data Group Meeting 17.-18. Feb. 2017, Oslo
- 2. BioMedBridges • BioMedBridges constructed an infrastructure to allow interoperability between data and services in the biological, medical, translational and clinical domains • Data bridges between biological and medical sciences research infrastructures BBMRI, EATRIS, ECRIN, ELIXIR, Infrafrontier, INSTRUCT, ERINHA, EU-OPENSCREEN, EMBRC, and Euro-BioImaging
- 3. Concepts • We implemented an approach where relevant concepts derived from computer science were adapted to define legal requirements for data bridges • “Legal interoperability” as an extension of the general interoperability concept for diverse systems • Planned data bridges become “interfaces”
- 4. Usage Scenarios • Concepts were applied to five usage scenarios representing different data bridges – Imaging Bridge, Phenotype Bridge, Personalised Medicine Bridge, Structural Data Bridge, and Biosample Data Bridge.
- 5. Databases involved in Phenobridge Data provider Cosmic, Catalogue of somatic mutations in cancer ICGC, International Cancer Genome Consortium TCGA, The Cancer Genome Atlas EGA, European Genome-phenome archive GEO Gene Expression Omnibus Array-Express ChEMBL Reactome Ensembl Drugbank
- 6. Data flow as basis • Data flow descriptions as basis for the specification of legal and ethical requirements – Assembled in form of requirement clusters • For each requirement cluster the relevant regulations and guidelines were analysed • Requirements arranged according to access rules, usage policies, constraints, obligations, ...
- 7. Legal and Ethical Assessment Tool • Answering a short survey • LAT assess the given answers and shows the legal texts and rules / regulations, which are relevant for the researcher’s situation • Availability: http://hhu2.at.xencon.de/web/guest/ass essmenttool.
