About OD4RD project

https://od4rd.eu * OD4RD(2) project generally aims to advance the **implementation of ORPHAcodes** in hospitals hosting the European Reference Networks (ERNs). The OD4RD(2) project builds on the specific Orphanet expertise, and on its organisation as a long-lasting, well-established network, to fullfil the following general objectives: 1. To contribute to the generation of standardised, interoperable data on RD diagnosis for primary and secondary use, by the maintenance and the support to the implementation of the Orphanet nomenclature of RD. 2. To contribute to the harmonisation of data collection amongst settings (health records, registries) and amongst countries, by the dissemination of good coding practices at the data source level. 3. To contribute at supporting evidence-based decision-making in the frame of the European strategy around ERNs, by supporting the exploitation of reference corpus of data and information on RD. * OD4RD(2) National Hub teams: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland * OD4RD2 National Hub coordination: Germany and Sweden * Orphanet coordinating team: France @MCecile-US14 Orphanet Nomenclature manager and OD4RD(2) scientific coordinator @Orphanet Orphanet deputy director and IT team leader @sylmaiOR Orphanet international coordinator @caterina-lucano-orphanet Orphanet disease team leader and classification manager @davidlagorce Orphanet IT and data science manager @Seed-Orphanet Orphanet Nomenclature and Terminology alignments manager @Orphanet-MartaFructuoso Orphanet Nomenclature and ERN collaborations manager @carolina-f Orphanet RD clinical signs manager @Orphanet-AysegulSenol Orphanet Nomenclature and RD definitions manager @Mickael-Orphanet Orphanet Nomenclature and gene manager
