Data collection arrangements
Since one of the main commitments of eCREAM is to make the data FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) to increase the value of scientific research, the data collected in eCREAM-UC1 will be centrally stored in the eCREAM project’s central server and the Medical Informatics Platform (MIP, see paragraph 8.5) for 10 years from the study closure date. The eCREAM project’s central server is located in Milan, Italy, and the Medical Informatics Platform is installed on the EBRAINS server located at the Centro Svizzero di Calcolo Scientifico (CSCS) in Lugano, Switzerland. At that point, all data collected for this study will be permanently deleted. Should the data be considered of particular interest for other scientific purposes, specific authorization will be requested from the competent ethical authorities to extend the duration of the storage.
Research programme
In line with the principles of open science, eCREAM is committed to promoting transparency, accessibility and collaboration at all stages of research and innovation, and to maximising the scientific and societal impact of the project. eCREAM has an open access strategy that foresees that, as they emerge, all eCREAM outputs will comply with the FAIR principles (making data findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable). The approach increases usability of the project outputs by a wide range of users outside the consortium, including patient advocacy groups, clinicians, policymakers, and researchers, while ensuring compliance with ethical, legal and societal requirements, in particular the GDPR and national implementations of data protection regulations.
