Strong evidence shows that health services that do more research provide better patient care.

Vast quantities of data and biological samples are collected on a daily basis at Barwon Health. These could be used for research that support improvements in care and enable discoveries in disease treatment and prevention.

With these goals in mind, the Barwon Health and Deakin University partnership has developed the Secure Health Data and Biosample Platform (SHeBa).

SHeBa provides a highly protected environment in which people can work on approved research projects that use de-identified data and biological samples, without the ability to extract individual data from the platform.

We want to understand the community's perspective when it comes to using data and samples collected during routine clinical care for research, so that SHeBa will both support a learning healthcare system and align with our community's values and expectations.

You are invited to attend two workshops, of 2-hour and 1-hour duration, respectively, separated by approx. 1 week. Participants will receive reimbursement of $30 per hour for their participation in the two workshops.
