About the HEAL Data Ecosystem
What Is the HEAL Data Ecosystem?
The HEAL Data Ecosystem is part of the NIH HEAL Initiative®, an NIH-wide effort to speed scientific solutions to stem the evolving national opioid public health crisis. The goal of the HEAL Data Ecosystem is to accelerate sharing HEAL-generated data and results among the broad community of researchers, health care providers, community leaders, policy makers, and other HEAL stakeholders who can benefit from learning the results of initiative research. The HEAL Data Ecosystem connects the HEAL community, enabling HEAL data to be searched, analyzed, and used to make new discoveries. By empowering researchers to make their HEAL-generated data FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable), the HEAL Data Ecosystem promotes data sharing.
