About this event


This webinar showcases NIH HEAL Data Ecosystem (HDE) progress, highlighting how appropriate tools, metadata quality, and advances in scientific community engagement strengthen data sharing and reuse opportunities. 
Participants receive a high-level overview of key HDE developments, including shared dataset growth, repository deposition trends, and increased adoption of standardized data practices, such as the use of common data elements. The session also highlights how these developments support study discoverability, interoperability, and future data reuse through shared infrastructure and community-driven standards.
The webinar concludes with a look at upcoming HDE enhancements, opportunities for continued engagement, and an interactive Q&A. Attendees leave with a clear understanding of how ongoing ecosystem efforts can directly support their research by making data easier to find and combine, expanding opportunities for cross-study and secondary analyses.
