Dementias Platform UK Data Portal  (DPUK Data Portal) holds detailed information on more than 2 million individuals from over 50 long-term health studies, known as cohort studies.

By joining data from all these cohort studies, we provide a secure, integrated and collaborative environment, where scientists from academia and industry can share knowledge and conduct joint research programmes, subject to strict governance permutations.

The portal is the technology hub of Dementias Platform UK...

There is insufficient intelligence about how the family justice system in Wales and England is working, the children and families using these services, and their wider outcomes beyond their involvement with the family court. The Family Justice Data Partnership (funded by the Nuffield Foundation) has therefore been established comprising a bespoke data platform – hosted within the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank – and analytical teams at Swansea and Lancaster University.

Launched in 2014, SAIC is part of the Innovation Centres programme, which aims to drive innovation in key economic sectors.

SAIC’s mission is to transform aquaculture by unlocking sustainable growth through innovation excellence. This means we work to reduce the environmental footprint and increase the economic impact of aquaculture.

Connecting businesses and academics, we fund and support commercially relevant, collaborative research that aims to deliver solutions to key sector challenges...

The National Centre for Population Health & Wellbeing Research (NCPHWR) carries out research to improve the health and well-being of people in Wales.

The Wales Asthma Observatory (WAO) is a platform for asthma research and surveillance.

It was developed to explore what is happening to patients with asthma in Wales and to examine this longitudinally in order to support improvements in the quality of treatment and care provided to patients and to also inform health service planning and clinical research.

The WAO includes a cumulative cohort of asthma patients covering most of Wales, totalling over 470,000 people with ever-diagnosed and...

BREATHE – The Health Research Hub for Respiratory Health will enable high quality research and cutting-edge innovation to improve the lives of people living with respiratory conditions, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Everyone in the UK will have a respiratory illness at some point in their life. We have the best datasets in the world – which should be used to improve respiratory health – but these are currently very difficult to find, access and use.

The Plynlimon Research Catchments (PRC), in the headwaters of the Severn and Wye rivers, are adjacent catchments (19.25 km²) with contrasting land uses: moorland and plantation forest. PRC monitoring and data collection combine the best elements of traditional methods and state-of-the-art technology, and the experimental catchments provide an outdoor laboratory for cross-cutting scientific studies. Three sub-catchments are nested within each main catchment, all with permanent flow gauging...
