Abstract:
In a national effort aiming at cross-hospitals data interoperability, the Swiss Personalized Health Network elected RDF as preferred data and meta-data representation format. Yet, most clinical research software solutions are not designed to interact with RDF databases. We present a modular Python toolkit allowing easy conversion from RDF graphs to i2b2, adaptable to other common data models (CDM) with reasonable efforts. The tool was designed with feedback from clinicians in both oncology and laboratory research.
