The Virtual Research Environment (VRE) is an open-source data management platform that enables medical researchers to store, process and share data in compliance with the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The VRE addresses the present lack of digital research data infrastructures fulfilling the need for (a) data protection for sensitive data, (b) capability to process complex data such as radiologic imaging, (c) flexibility for creating own processing workflows, (d) access to high performance computing. The platform promotes FAIR data principles and reduces barriers to biomedical research and innovation. The VRE offers a web portal with graphical and command-line interfaces, segregated data zones and organizational measures for lawful data onboarding, isolated computing environments where large teams can collaboratively process sensitive data privately, analytics workbench tools for processing, analyzing, and visualizing large datasets, automated ingestion of hospital data sources, project-specific data warehouses for structured storage and retrieval, graph databases to capture and query ontology-based metadata, provenance tracking, version control, and support for automated data extraction and indexing. The VRE is based on a modular and extendable state-of-the art cloud computing framework, a RESTful API, open developer meetings, hackathons, and comprehensive documentation for users, developers, and administrators. The VRE with its concerted technical and organizational measures can be adopted by other research communities and thus facilitates the development of a co-evolving interoperable platform ecosystem with an active research community.

The Queen's Research Data Centre is a member of the Canadian Research Data Centre Network (CRDCN) that provides researchers with access to microdata 'masterfiles' from population and health surveys. Access to the RDC is limited to those with projects approved by Statistics Canada. Before applying to an RDC, you will have to show that your research cannot be conducted using Public Use Microdata Files (PUMFs) available through the Data Liberation Initiative (DLI). Access to DLI PUMFS at Queen's is available through the Social Science Data Centre, using the ODESI data portal.
