    We developed a user-friendly computer facility, the Data Bank, to manage large medical research data volumes. Overcoming communication challenges between IT and medical staff was key to its successful implementation and accessibility.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Informatics
    • Computer Science in Healthcare

    Background:

    • Medical research generates vast datasets requiring efficient management.
    • Accessibility of data management systems for non-computer-expert staff is a significant challenge.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To design and implement a user-friendly computer facility for medical research data.
    • To address challenges in making advanced data handling systems accessible to medical professionals.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a computer facility named the Data Bank.
    • Focus on user-friendliness for computer-naive medical research staff.
    • Iterative refinement based on accessibility issues encountered.

    Main Results:

    • A functional computer facility capable of handling large data volumes was established.
