CO-CONNECT: COVID - Curated and Open aNalysis aNd rEsearCh plaTform
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Nottingham
Department Name: School of Computer Science
Abstract
CO-CONNECT is a collaborative project and it has four CO-PIs: Jefferson (Dundee), Sheikh (Edinburgh), Hopkins (PHE) and Quinlan (Nottingham).
The current COVID-19 pandemic has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths, severely strained health systems and damaged economies across the world. At this time there is limited evidence that people who have recovered from COVID-19 and have antibodies are protected from a second infection and if so, how long that lasts. Understanding who is immune is vital to protect vulnerable individuals, to safely scale back population-based interventions and for managing disease transmission.
The data which can help us to answer these key questions have been collected across the UK by a range of research groups and within clinical primary and secondary care settings. As this is a new disease, the standards for antibody data capture are in their infancy so some of the details need to answer the key questions are not being captured systematically. The fragmented landscape of data means that it can be challenging for public health groups and researchers to find and access the high-quality data they need at pace.
We will:
- Standardise antibody data collection across the UK
- Configure an infrastructure which enables trustworthy, fast, de-identified, secure analysis of data sets from across multiple sources
- Answer key questions about immunity to COVID-19 and the implications for patient outcomes.

Technical Summary
CO-CONNECT is a collaborative project and it has four CO-PIs: Jefferson (Dundee), Sheikh (Edinburgh), Hopkins (PHE) and Quinlan (Nottingham).
The UK has rich, globally important COVID-19 datasets, including large serology cohort studies funded by UKRI, Wellcome, DHSC/NHS, NIHR and the devolved administrations. However, this breadth of data creates a risk of fragmentation, inconsistent structure and access processes, severely limiting utility, timeliness and impact.
Our vision is to transform UK COVID-19 diagnostic datasets to be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) and couple this with expert data engineering, enabled by Health Data Research (HDR) UK, to catalyse responsible and trustworthy use of the data for research and innovation.
We propose to support PIs and data custodians to link COVID-19 cohort, serology and other health and non-health datasets. This longitudinal linkage is vital to derive new scientific insights and deliver informed decisions about how best to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2. At present there are >30 independent studies with no streamlined approach to linkage to other health and non-health related datasets, lack of data standardisation, and no strategic approach to synthesise analyses across studies.
SAGE (9th June) requested HDR to work with partners to develop the UK-wide serology and testing data research asset that is linkable to other data sources.
This proposal has been prepared in response to this request. We have bought together 41 leaders from 29 different organisations and 44 data sources to address a major data engineering challenge by building upon existing UKRI investments, including the HDR BREATHE Hub, to create a 'one-stop' service for trustworthy, multi-stakeholder utilisation of curated COVID-19 data for public, private and third sector benefit.

| Description | Data on millions of individuals reside in the UKs national TREs and yet to find out what is available within them is challenging. It is possible to look at meta data that will tell you what fields and columns are present, but to understand if the volume of data you need for research, requires a lengthy process of applying to the TREs, for their staff to run a query, the output to be checked for anything disclosive and the answer given back to the researcher. That process could take months and the answer may be that there is nothing available. Therefore, we currently have a expensive, slow process that often leads to no research. This holds back both academic and commercial research. Given the pressing demand that COVID-19 presented, the time was now to change this process and to bring automation, such that the answers were almost instantaneous. But unlike other attempts, we sought to do this based on open standards, team science and a collaborative endeavour across industry, academia, the publics and public health bodies to support multiple projects rather than simply a single project. For all the datasets in CO-CONNECT we: (1) Made them discoverable on the HDR UK Gateway, ensuring they are visible to all. (2) Curated all data to a common international standard (3) Installed software to facilitate live querying of data This approach is now being adopted across international consortia. |
| Exploitation Route | We have transformed the impression that confidential healthcare data can never be open, we are transforming the culture within national TREs such that they can see how data can be open to question and discovery without compromising on security, confidentiality and the trust of the public. This landmark change in how data can be discovered will have legacy well into the future and well beyond covid-19, it has transformed the state of the possible in under two years. Others may now try different technical approaches, but we have change the conversation from whether such a system could deliver transparency to how such systems could be used. Therefore, leaving a legacy for further innovation. |
| Sectors | Healthcare |
| Description | As well as on boarding many datasets, the CO-CONNECT project has built a lasting infrastructure legacy which will be taken forward by new projects (some already funded including HDR QQR2 core funds and Alleviate Data Hub). The lasting legacy includes: • A new secure architecture which has been approved by organisations hosting both unconsented and consented datasets - which can be enhanced and re-used o New processes for on-boarding new datasets o Open-source software to map datasets into OMOP o OpenAPIs to enhance and expand the functionality o WhiteRabbit accepted as software for profiling and producing meta-data on sensitive datasets o Acceptance of automated disclosure control o Federated analytics capability utilising the same architecture • The cohort discovery tool live within the HDR Gateway o Reduced time and effort for both researchers and data custodians to carry out feasibility queries across multiple datasets. o Data custodians are supported to promote their dataset and researchers can find out about data sets they otherwise would not have known about • Materials which can be used to on-board new datasets covering all diseases not just COVID o A range of explainer videos for data custodians and the general public to understand the solution, benefits and how we protect patient confidentiality. o Comprehensive documentation for use in data governance applications and for technical teams implementing the solution • Changed the conversation from WHY should we do cohort discovery/federated analytics to HOW should we. |
