23 May, 2022 NewsIn the SMITH Consortium, more than 300 employees from the fields of medicine, clinical practice and IT are working to link research and healthcare. Medical data routinely generated in everyday clinical practice is processed and made available to medical research in a standardized form. Patients benefit from reliable research results, more precise diagnoses and better treatments. In order to link data from care and research, the participating university hospitals in Aachen, Bonn, Essen, Halle, Hamburg, Jena and Leipzig have established sustainable Data Integration Centers. The network partners Ruhr University Bochum, the Düsseldorf University Hospital and the University Medical Center Rostock are preparing the structure. This is being done in close cooperation with the universities of Aachen, Jena and Leipzig, two non-university research institutions and four industrial partners. SMITH is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) since January 2018 as part of the Medical Informatics Initiative.
