📢 UK health data should be recognised as "critical national infrastructure".

Published today, the #SudlowReview offers critical insights into how we can safely and securely use data science to improve health services across the UK.

How the discovery of a breast cancer risk gene changed the story of cancer https://t.co/XbXHHdmonN

[Cambridge University @Cambridge_Uni]

30 years ago a landmark paper identified the BRCA1 gene that significantly increases the risk of #BreastCancer and #OvarianCancer when faulty. What impact did this discovery have on how we understand and treat cancer?

The public may wonder about the value of sharing their health data. PREDICT breast and prostate and CanRisk are widely used clinical tools based on NHS data.

These would not be possible without data sharing.
