The University of Wisconsin–Madison, one of 18 members of the Biohealth Tech Hub consortium, was selected by the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) to spearhead a $49 million in Phase 2 funding to the Wisconsin Biohealth Tech Hub, focused to create a comprehensive, secure, accessible, and inclusive health data ecosystem that will be able to provide research-ready health data. Scientists, entrepreneurs, and biohealth companies will be able to access the Health Data Hub for upstream research and discovery to generate new treatments and to conduct downstream evaluation studies that assess how existing treatments can be used in the most effective way possible. A key objective is making new clinical research accessible to all.
