Recap Heart4Data Consortium meeting April 12th 2023

At the Heart4Data Consortium meeting, last Wednesday 12 April, stakeholders and interested parties were updated on the steps taken and future of the various work packages within this consortium.

In the introduction, consortium leaders Folkert Asselbergs and Dennis van Veghel indicated that both implementation and coordination with partners are well under way. In fact, researchers are already asking whether the developed infrastructure for registration-based clinical trials (RB-RCT) can be used for other registrations in the near future, and discussions are ongoing with partners such as DCVA, Health-RI & NVVC about further embedding in policy.
