Abstract

An informatics platform has been designed, deployed and validated around the ITCBio initiative to provide support to clinical and translational research in Andalusia. To this end, an infrastructure has been developed which, in a scalable manner, incorporates functionalities aimed to facilitate the consistent definition of information models, the data reusability from electronic health records, as well as the analysis and processing of information. All this with the purpose of providing support to the different clinical and translational research processes associated with clinical trials and research projects. This initiative is based on the creation of a suite of applications that, through using standards, incorporates open-software tools intended to support these research processes. It is currently in widespread and growing use in university hospitals in which the platform is deployed.
