How do you think your health data should be shared and used?
University of Cambridge researchers are inviting the public to take part in a national survey.
The survey asks for people's views on how information collected during the course of their health care is used to provide care, and for research to improve care for others.
- How should your health data be shared?
- Who should share your health data?
- What consent should be given?
Anyone who is a UK resident can take part in the survey, but under 16s will need the consent of a parent or guardian.
