EUCAIM is pleased to announce the signing of two important Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with the QUANTUM project and the European Society of Paediatric Radiology (ESPR). These partnerships mark a significant step forward in strengthening collaboration and innovation in cancer research across Europe.
The new MoUs aim to foster mutually beneficial exchanges and support the shared goal of improving data access, quality, and use for advancing life sciences, with a particular focus on cancer research.
Partnership with QUANTUM
QUANTUM is developing a European health data quality label to facilitate the secondary use of health data for research and innovation. By establishing a common labelling system, the project empowers researchers and innovators to identify and utilize high-quality datasets that offer maximum societal value. The initiative brings together 35 partners, including leading European research infrastructures and digital industry actors.
The EUCAIM-QUANTUM collaboration is expected to streamline the discovery and use of cancer-related datasets across borders, contributing to a more integrated and trustworthy European Health Data Space.
Partnership with ESPR
The European Society of Paediatric Radiology (ESPR) is the pan-European professional society dedicated to paediatric imaging, with a long-standing history since 1963. ESPR brings deep expertise in paediatric, perinatal, and foetal imaging, research, education, and radiation protection. Through this MoU, EUCAIM and ESPR will coordinate efforts to advance best practices, research standards, and data-driven innovation in paediatric cancer imaging.
With active task forces, a strong research committee, and a commitment to evidence-based practice, ESPR’s engagement will enhance EUCAIM’s capacity to address the specific needs of paediatric oncology imaging.
These partnerships reinforce EUCAIM’s mission to create a federated, interoperable infrastructure for cancer image data sharing in Europe. They also support broader European objectives related to the Digital Europe Programme and the European Health Data Space.
