Human biomaterial banks (short: biobanks) are collections of human body substances (i.e. blood, DNA, urine or tissue) connected with disease specific information. This allow for research of relations between deseases and underlying (molecular) modifications and paves the way for developing target-oriented therapies ("personalized medicine"). The biobank material arises from samples taken for therapeutical or diagnostic reasons or is extracted in the context of clinical trials. An approval for usage by the patient is always needed prior to any research activities.

The Research Data Centre of the Robert Koch Institute (FDZ RKI) publishes the data of population-representative health surveys in the form of public use files (PUFs).The main purpose of health surveys is to generate a maximum amount of information on the state of health and health-related behaviour of Germany's resident population while ensuring an optimum use of funds. The methodology - i.e. the sample design, the principles on operationalization and measurement, and data-collection techniques - is largely modelled on the tried-and-tested methods of empirical social research. Health interview surveys (HIS) use established survey techniques such as filling out questionnaires, computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI), computer-assisted personal interviews (CAPI), and online polling via the internet or email. The main difference compared to purely sociological surveys lies in the additional biomedical examinations, tests and medical-biochemical measurements, which generate significant added value in addition to the results of the surveys; this part is referred to internationally as the health examination survey (HES).

<<<!!!<<< This product is in the archive and is no longer current. >>>!!!>>> Biobanks are a key prerequisite for modern medical research. By linking samples and clinical data they make it possible to clarify the causes and the course of diseases. The German Biobank Registry pools the medically relevant biobanks in Germany. The German Biobank Registry provides an overview of the medical biobanks in Germany; increases the international visibility of German biobanks; facilitates the networking of biobanks; promotes an exchange of information and samples between research teams; supports the use of existing resources; provides information for investments in biobanks and promotes transparency and trust in research where human samples are used. Searching for samples in all biobanks is possible at the project portal (P2B2) https://p2b2.fraunhofer.de/ after registration.

Since 2004, the Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology – BIPS has been working on the establishment and maintenance of the project-based German Pharmacoepidemiological Research Database (short GePaRD). GePaRD is based on claims data from statutory health insurance (SHI) providers and currently includes information on about 20 million persons who have been insured with one of the participating providers since 2004. Per data year, there is information on approximately 17% of the general population from all geographical regions of Germany.

The SHIP study´s main aims include the investigation of health in all its aspects and complexity involving the collection and assessment of data relevant to the prevalence and incidence of common, population-relevant diseases and their risk factors.

The population-based cancer registries in each German federal state transfer data to the German Centre for Cancer Registry Data, as required by the Federal Cancer Registry Data Act. These data are combined, quality-checked, analysed and evaluated, and the results published in collaboration with the public health institutions of the federal states.

The MDR harvests metadata on data objects from a variety of sources within clinical research (e.g. trial registries, data repositories) and brings that together in a single searchable portal. The metadata is concerned with discoverability, access and provenance of the data objects (which because the data may be sensitive will often be available under a controlled access regime). At the moment (01/2021) the MDR obtains study data from: Clinical Trials.gov (CTG), The European Clinical Trials Registry (EUCTR), ISRCTN, The WHO ICTRP

The Research Data Centre (FDZ-RV) was set-up in 2004 as an integral part of the German Federal Pension Insurance (Deutsche Rentenversicherung). Since then, the Research Data Centre produced several cross-sectional and longitudinal datasets, also called Scientific Use Files (SUF), available to researchers interested in issues of retirement, disability and rehabilitation. The datasets are released on an annual basis. The Scientific Use Files are subsamples drawn from the pool of individuals who are insured in the Federal Pension Insurance. The information provided in the original datasets is necessary to administer the beneficiaries of the pension insurance.
FORS is the Swiss Centre of Expertise in the Social Sciences. FORS maintains a national digital archive for social science research data, implements large-scale national and international surveys, offers data and research information services to researchers and academic institutions, and conducts methodological and thematic research. FORS Data Service is FORS’ resource centre for research and teaching in the social sciences. It provides data management support and training, and it archives, disseminates and promotes quantitative and qualitative data. The Data Service maintains a comprehensive and up-to-date inventory of social science research projects in Switzerland, and makes available a wide range of datasets for secondary analysis. Databases at the FORS Data Service are: SWISSUbase and DeVisu (for variable level metadata for important surveys).
