Abstract:
Epidemiologic data sharing and access, and information sharing and access, are complex issues with no consensus within the industrial community. The purpose of this paper is to provide an introduction, as well as some personal perspectives, to the issues of data access and sharing. These perspectives include a discussion of types of data sharing, advantages and barriers to openness, and alternatives that lower the need for sharing of the raw data.
