Work Package 6
This WP aims to enhance digital collaboration within and between cancer centres and across sectors. It develops two use cases focused on cross-European Virtual Tumour Boards, including Virtual Molecular Tumour Boards, and digitally facilitated patient transitions, such as discharged conferences.
The WP tests technical and clinical frameworks in selected healthcare settings, leveraging existing EU-developed digital tools, and collects evidence on performance, usability and outcomes while ensuring data privacy and security. Based on these results, it delivers final recommendations on interoperability standards, collaborative digital frameworks and best practices, in alignment with the European Health Data Space and other EU infrastructures.
As preparatory steps, WP6 maps existing infrastructure, digital tools and interoperability frameworks for the secure exchange of health data and set two experts boards to assess the design and implementation of the two use cases.
Leader: Region of Southern Denmark (RSYD)
