Phenotyping beyond (national) borders: tools, processes, and examples of transportable phenotypes based on the OMOP Common Data Model


Please note that the seminar will commence at 2:10pm.

For out next talk, in the Phenome@BDI Seminar series, on 28 February, 2:00pm – 3:00pm at the Big Data Institute (BDI), we will be hearing from Prof David Prieto-Alhambra, Clinician Scientist, Health Data Sciences, Botnar Research Centre. We are delighted to host Prof Prieto-Alhambra in what promises to be an amazing talk!

Date: 28 February
Time: 2:10pm – 3:10pm
Title: Phenotyping beyond (national) borders: tools, processes, and examples of transportable phenotypes based on the OMOP Common Data Model
Location: BDI/OxPop Seminar room 1

Abstract: Disease-based phenotypes can present in multiple ways and forms across different data sources. While tools have existed for a while to ‘translate’ across coding systems, phenotypes are often more than codes, and can include information on context (healthcare settings), treatment/s, procedure/s or laboratory measurements. As the ambition to conduct multi-database multinational studies increases, there is an urgent need to generate reusable, reproducible, and transportable phenotypes that can be used to conduct federated analytics. The OMOP Common Data Model has become a ‘de facto’ data standard that can handle different types of data and the resulting phenotypes. We will discuss tools, processes, and examples where we created and validated complex phenotypes for international collaboration on topics like COVID-19, drug/vaccine safety, and descriptive epidemiology research.

About: Prof Dani Prieto-Alhambra is a clinician scientist leading the Health Data Sciences section of the Botnar Research Centre. Dani has extensive expertise in the processing and analysis of national and international routine health data for the study of human health. The COVID-19 pandemic catapulted his work and visibility internationally. Dani’s group’s mission is to improve human health through the use of real world data.
