The new webinar series on Secure Processing Environments (SPEs) examines the future of secure data analysis in health research. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of SPEs, including their role in enabling safe and efficient use of sensitive health data and supporting FAIR principles. Perspectives from three key stakeholder groups — data users, data holders, and technology providers — are shown to offer insights into their roles, challenges, and priorities. Real-world case studies, practical guidance, and interactive discussions provide insights into the effective implementation and use of SPEs and can initiate a community building process. 

This webinar series takes place every third Wednesday of the month at 4 p.m. and is organised by NFDI4Health.
