SUMMARY:Seminar - Using administrative data linkage to create electronic birth cohorts: opportunities and challenges
DESCRIPTION:All are invited to the MRC Epidemiology Seminar: \nUsing administrative data linkage to create electronic birth cohorts: opportunities and challenges\nDr Katie Harron\, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health\nWatch a recording of this talk online. \nAbout this talk\nLinkage of administrative data from different sources can help us better understand the distribution of health and disease in populations. Linking data for mothers and babies allows us to create electronic cohort studies that cover a high proportion of the population\, and to generate highly generalisable evidence to inform public policy. However\, linkage is not always straightforward\, particularly when we would like to link cross-sectoral data in order to understand social determinants of health. In this talk\, I will discuss some of the opportunities for research using electronic birth cohorts\, and some of the challenges that we should try to address when using these data for research. \nAbout Dr Harron\nKatie is an Associate Professor in quantitative methods at the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health. Her methodological research aims to develop methods to exploit the rich data that are collected about populations as we interact with services throughout our lives. Katie’s applied research focuses on maximising the use of existing data sources to improve services for vulnerable mothers and families. Her current research links data from health\, education and social care at a national level\, in order to improve our understanding of the health of individuals from birth to young adulthood. \nTwitter: @klharron \nExplore past seminars\nAll MRC Epidemiology Unit seminars and events where slides\, audio or video are available can be found at www.mrc-epid.cam.ac.uk/past-seminars/ \nSign up for future seminars\nTo sign up for future seminars and/or other alerts please visit www.mrc-epid.cam.ac.uk/subscribe/
