Dive deeper into this product! The Ethical Provenance Toolkit aims to create a useful ethical provenance framework, promoting distinct yet streamlined policies and practices regarding data use whilst also enabling cost-effective scalability of data-enabled biomedical research. The term “ethical provenance” can be understood as the practice of developing a record of the ethical, legal, and institutional rules applicable to data use for specified data sets, including the permissions for data use and data sharing, over time. The term encapsulates both individual tools that can aid this process, as well as the overall process of observing the data’s journey in accordance with the overarching data life cycle process, transparently. Ethical provenance would provide harmonised tools across research institutions and enable the clear oversight of biomedical data, throughout their lifetime.
