National Data Assets & Opportunities for Collaboration across the UK Nations and Beyond The Event In this webinar, researchers from England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales share insights from collaborative work on the DaC-VaP project that has used national linked data assets to answer key COVID-19 research questions at a UK-level. Chaired by Professor Sir Aziz Sheikh, Director of the University of Edinburgh’s Usher Institute, our collaborators will take you through: The data assets used in this project, and the types of data they contain; How these assets have facilitated collaborative, individual nation and UK-wideCOVID-19 research, which has benefited the wider public and decision makers; How DaC-VaP-2 has promoted effective collaboration between the four UK nations and with international partners; Some of the analysis methods used to deliver results; and How these assets can be accessed for future research. This event will highlight the potential of the UK’s population-scale data assets, and why their digital maturity should be maintained and developed beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. We also hope to encourage greater interest and involvement in these assets among our colleagues across health data science and research.

What is DaC-VaP-2? DaC-VaP-2 : The impact of COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy, children and young people, and vulnerable groups . This project aims to build upon earlier work produced by the DaC-VaP project, by following up on topics of interests identified through its Patient Public Involvement and Engagement and professional outreach activities. The questions the DaC-VaP-2 aims to answer are: What is the uptake, safety and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines... in pregnancy? in children and young people? when given as booster doses? with disease caused by different variants?
