The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics Data Hub (RADx® Data Hub) announces today that its cloud-enabled platform is now open to researchers. The RADx Data Hub represents one of the largest collections of NIH COVID data available to researchers that allows researchers to explore, access, and analyze COVID-related data developed through NIH RADx program initiatives.

The RADx Data Hub offers the opportunity for unprecedented access to COVID-19 data for researchers to conduct secondary data analyses, forge new collaborations, and build a community to accelerate scientific research and innovations.

The RADx Data Hub provides access to RADx data from studies in progress and from complete RADx studies. Unique to this program, RADx projects have common harmonized demographic and COVID-related data to facilitate robust, cross-study analyses of data from different projects. Researchers can use data in the RADx Data Hub to conduct secondary analyses and address issues related to the difficulties with the detection and prevention of community spread for COVID-19 and potential future pandemics.
