NATON at GMDS 2024 

As part of GMDS 2024, NATON had the opportunity to participate in a joint workshop with TMF and AKTIN. The focus was on the initial practical experiences with the Health Data Utilization Act (GDNG).

During the workshop, the key innovations of the GDNG were presented, and their relevance for medical research and practice was discussed. A central topic was the AKTIN infrastructure, which was explored in detail as part of a pilot project for the implementation of the GDNG. Additionally, initial insights into the application of the GDNG in the National Autopsy Register (NAREG) were shared. The discussions regarding experiences with the law in the ongoing ethics procedure were particularly valuable.

The workshop concluded with a panel discussion that addressed various perspectives on the practical implementation of the GDNG. We thank all participants for the lively exchange and the exciting insights.
