Making research relevant: The importance of trusted research environments and knowledge exchange to maximise real-world impact -  Katherine O'Sullivan

Trusted research environments (TREs) are critical in ensuring personal data is de-identified for research purposes. But individual-level, personal data is equally critical in providing actionable improvements for those on the front line in health and social care settings. This talk will provide an overview of the Grampian Data Safe Haven and its role in de-identifying and linking data within the ‘Five Safes’ framework for health and population research. But it will also discuss the ways TREs can facilitate research outputs being implemented in health and social care settings to provide real-world impact to individuals in care environments.
