 scussion\n\nThe impact of data-centric research is increasingly dependent 
 on the ability of researchers to access sensitive data and combine large-s
 cale\, representative data sets for analysis\, pointing more and more to t
 he need for secure analytical environments for research on security-graded
  data.\n\nThese data sets need to be hosted and managed in Trusted Researc
 h Environments (TREs)\, providing data access and analysis while ensuring 
 reliable data management\, governance and technology.\n\nHowever\, the lan
 dscape of TREs involving sensitive or restricted data is very fragmented\,
  and there is no common reference architecture that enables connectivity a
 nd interoperability among TREs. To address this fragmentation and foster c
 ollaboration among different stakeholders\, there is a need to establish a
  framework for large-scale partnerships on sensitive and restricted data v
 ia a network of TREs.\n\nELIXIR is hosting this discussion with a panel of
  experts with the aim of fostering a collaborative approach towards solvin
 g these issues.\n\nPanellists\n\n\n	Bert  Verdonck (Chief Executive Offic
 er\, Luxembourg National Data Service (LNDS))\n	Sara Garavelli (Strategic 
 European Engagement and Coordination Development Manager at CSC – IT Cen
 ter for Science in Finland\, and member of the Board of Directors of the E
 OSC Association) \n	Kate Witkowska (Strategic Partnership Director\, Geno
 mics England)\n	Sebastian Wasilewski (Senior Director of Informatics at CG
 R\, AstraZeneca)\n	Frederic Erard (Head\, Legal and Technology Transfer Of
 fice\, Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics)\n\n\nModerator:  ELIXIR repres
 entative (TBC)\n\nTopics \n\n\n	How to harmonise the standards  for data 
 quality\, interoperability and governance across different TREs and data s
 ources.\n	How to leverage cloud-based services and technologies to enable 
 scalable and efficient data analysis and storage in TREs.\n	How to address
  the ethical\, legal and social implications of genomic data sharing and u
 se in TREs.\n	How to increase public awareness and trust in genomic data u
 se and benefit in TREs.\n\n\nMore information\n\nSee the conference websit
