About i2b2
- I2B2 provides a web based portal interface developed by Harvard School of Medicine as part of their CTSA program.
- UNMC in partnership with Great Plains Collaborative (GPC) Network (11 other Midwestern academic medical institutes) received funding from Patient Centered Outcome Research Institute (PCORI) to implement I2B2 & PopMedNet.
- The I2B2 backend connects to the Integrated Clinical Research Data warehouse (ICRD) of UNMC.
- Research IT Office (RITO) built the ICRD (funded by PCORI) which is connected to Nebraska Medicine patient data and local clinical registries.
- RITO built both identified and de-identified versions of ICRD. However, currently the I2B2 is operational from de-identified version of ICRD in support of PCORnet sponsored Comparative Effectiveness Research Trials.
- PopMedNet is software developed by Harvard Medical School. RITO has built the production environment for PopMedNet.
- The PopMedNet software application enables simple creation, operation, and governance of distributed health data networks. It facilitates distributed analyses of electronic health data to support medical product safety, comparative effectiveness, quality, medical resource use, cost-effectiveness, and related studies.
- The PopMedNet enables UNMC to securely receive and send query data held by GPC partners. The software also allows GPC partners to maintain physical and operational control over their data.
In summary, the I2B2 software framework connects to de-identified version of ICRD and can be used by UNMC & Nebraska Medicine researchers. On the other hand, the PopMedNet also connects to de-identified version of ICRD but serves GPC network partners.
UNMC & Nebraska Medicine researchers who are interested to learn more about I2B2 platform, please contact Dr. Jim McClay (jmcclay@unmc.edu) (project PI) or Dr. Ashok Mudgapalli (Director of Research IT – Ashok.mudgapalli@unmc.edu)
