Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS)

Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS) is the Dutch national centre of expertise and repository for research data. We help researchers make their data available for reuse. This allows researchers to use the data for new research and makes published research verifiable and reproducible. With more than 150,000 datasets and a staff of 60, DANS is one of the leading repositories in Europe.

DANS is an institute of KNAW (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences) and NWO (Dutch Research Council).

Health-RI

The Dutch Techcentre for Life Sciences (DTL) has been a partner of RDNL since 2022. As Health-RI and DTL joined their forces in 2023, the RDNL-partnership will be continued by Health-RI.

Health-RI serves as the national coordination point for agreements on the reuse of health data, stimulating cooperation between healthcare professionals, policymakers, patient organizations, researchers, and industry.Our vision is based on the potential of better data reuse. By combining data from various sources, such as clinical and lifestyle data, a deeper understanding of the complexity of disease and health can be gained. This leads to the development of better treatments and products, ultimately improving the health of citizens and patients.

Within Health-RI, we work on a comprehensive range of services and facilities aimed at supporting organizations and researchers. This includes a national system of agreements, a centralized portal for finding, requesting, and obtaining data, training, and expert advice on ethical and legal matters.
