Are you interested in how health data can be used responsibly to help people live longer and healthier lives? Do you live in Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales?  This could be the opportunity for you. 

Health Data Research UK (HDR UK) is the national institute for health data science. By working in partnership and providing safe and secure access to rich health data, they aim to better understand diseases and discover new ways to prevent, treat and cure them.   

HDR UK want to ensure their work is grounded in the needs, values and interests of patients, carers and the public so have created a Public Advisory Board. They are vital in providing advice on the interests and values of patients and the public in health data use, approaches to earn public trust and confidence around health data, strategic areas of work and much more.  

They are now looking for three new members to join the Board and help represent patients and the public in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.  Visit the HDRUK website for more information and apply by Sunday 22nd March 2020
