OmicSpace holds its Kick-Off Meeting
The La Fe Health Research Institute (IIS La Fe) hosted the kick-off meeting of the OmicSpace project on September 24. This initiative is funded by the Ministry of Digital Transformation and Public Function through project TSI-100121-2024-0068, supported by European funds from the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, and financed by the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
During the session, members of the consortium presented the project’s main pillars, including the federated architecture and the status of node deployment, the data catalog and standards (HealthDCAT-AP), as well as key aspects such as the proposal for the integration and standardization of genomic data.
The session began with a welcome by Mª Eugenia Gas, project coordinator, followed by key presentations covering administrative aspects, technical architecture, data standards, governance, integration of biobank records and genomic data, as well as the first use case in pharmacogenetics.
The meeting also addressed the project’s internal and external communication strategies and presented the “Data Spaces Kit” call — an essential tool to facilitate the incorporation of new participating nodes into data spaces such as OmicSpace. The session provided an opportunity for representatives from the various institutions involved in the project to exchange ideas, marking the beginning of a collaborative shared data ecosystem aimed at driving innovation in health.
The event marked the launch of a collaborative shared data ecosystem to foster innovation in the healthcare sector.
OmicSpace celebra su Kick-Off Meeting
El Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria La Fe (IIS La Fe) acogió, el pasado 24 de septiembre, la reunión de lanzamiento del proyecto OmicSpace, una iniciativa financiada por el Ministerio de Transformación Digital y Función Pública a través del proyecto TSI-100121-2024-0068, con cargo a los fondos europeos del Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia y Financiado por la Unión Europea – NextGenerationEU.
Durante la jornada, los miembros del consorcio presentaron los pilares fundamentales del proyecto. Entre los que destaca la arquitectura federada y el estado del despliegue de nodos, el catálogo de datos y estándares (HealthDCAT-AP) y otros aspectos fundamentales como es la propuesta de integración y estandarización de los datos genómicos.
La sesión comenzó con la bienvenida de Mª Eugenia Gas, coordinadora del proyecto, seguida de intervenciones clave sobre aspectos administrativos, arquitectura técnica, estándares de datos, gobernanza, integración de registros del biobanco y datos genómicos, así como el primer caso de uso en farmacogenética.
El encuentro también permitió abordar las estrategias de comunicación interna y externa del proyecto, así como presentar la convocatoria del “Kit de Espacios de Datos”. Una herramienta esencial para facilitar la incorporación de nuevos nodos participantes en espacios de datos como OmicSpace. La reunión permitió el intercambio de ideas entre los representantes de las distintas instituciones implicadas en el proyecto, marcando el inicio de un ecosistema colaborativo de datos compartidos para impulsar la innovación en salud.
