The data from the AKTIN platform is available for research questions. All representatives of participating clinics, medical societies or public research institutions can submit applications for data analysis.
Before submitting an application, it is important to contact the AKTIN team for advice on the research project. Once the application has been submitted, the AKTIN Data Use and Access Committee reviews the applications in terms of scientific feasibility, ethics and data protection. The data request is then forwarded to the participating clinics. If the request is approved, the data is aggregated and analysed in the Trusted Data Analytics Center (TDAC) and then made available to the data requesters.
