DaSH (Grampian Data Safe Haven)
The Grampian Data Safe Haven (DaSH) was established by the University of Aberdeen and NHS Grampian, and enables secure access to data covering the Grampian and Scottish population.
About the Grampian Data Safe Haven (DaSH)
The Grampian Data Safe Haven (DaSH) was established by the University of Aberdeen and NHS Grampian and is a specialised facility which hosts a secure compute platform, known as a Trusted Research Environment (TRE) that allows approved researchers to securely access health, social care and other administrative data within the Grampian and Scottish population.
DaSH ensures that routinely captured, individual-level sensitive data is accessible for research and clinical purposes. Rigorous de-identification and quality assurance processes mean that the privacy of individuals is protected.
Datasets available
DaSH can facilitate access to a wide range of NHS Grampian population data.
How to enquire
Researchers must initially complete a Project Initiation Document, which helps DaSH understand the project's needs. If the project is deemed feasible, DaSH will guide researchers through the next steps in the process.
