Understanding Patient Data has compiled a summary of research and resources exploring public attitudes towards health data. Topics include trust in different organisations, opinions on decision-making, opt-out and choice, and how views differ among different groups of people.

This resource summarises public attitudes toward the use of patient data, based on research studies from 2010 to the present. It highlights key themes, such as support for using anonymised data for health research if there is public benefit, and concerns about industry using the data.

This Health Data Research UK bite-sized video covers strategies to build trust and engage underserved communities in data-enabled clinical trials. You will discover how partnerships, co-design and addressing barriers to participation can foster inclusivity and improve diversity in trial participation.
