![Medical Informatics Initiative](https://www.highmed.org/hubfs/Side%20view%20of%20serious%20researchers%20looking%20at%20computer%20screen%20in%20the%20laboratory.jpeg)

Medical Informatics Initiative (MII) opens Research Data Portal for Health.

At the German Research Data Portal for Health (in German: FDPG), researchers can centrally apply for health data and biosamples from German university medicine for scientific projects. The portal was developed within the MII and was published in September 2022. Since mid-May, it has also been available to researchers who are not involved within the MII.

As part of the MII, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, data integration centres have been established at more than 30 university medical sites nationwide. These facilities make patient data and biosamples from routine care available for medical research in a data-protection-compliant manner.
