Big Data: The New Epidemiology

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

As the use of big data in psychiatry continues to expand, it is crucial to involve patients and the public in decisions about its development and application. Mental Health Data Science Scotland has co-produced a best practice checklist involving both researchers and people with lived experience. This guidance emphasises the need for data to be securely accessible and carefully anonymised and for processes and analyses to be transparent, with participants or patients prioritised throughout.
