Data Overview

The NIHR BioResource holds various types of data on its participants that may be used for data-only research, or as the basis of selection to experimental medicine studies.

It includes data we requested at enrolment:

  • The original consents (of course!)
  • Personal details, that we use to contact participants to keep them informed, and invite them to take part in studies
  • Self-reported demographics (age, gender, ethnicity) and health and lifestyle factors
  • Summary clinical details, if the participant was recruited from a clinic setting.

And is supplemented by data we commission on samples taken, e.g.:

  • Genetic data
  • Metabolic data.

It will also be supplemented – but is not yet – by data that we acquire from other sources, such as NHS Digital.

All these will be described on other pages of this section.
