Abstract: Copyright © The Author(s) 2019. Why was the collaboration set up? DynaHEALTH is a research consortium funded by the European Commission through the Horizon 2020 research programme. It was established to help solve the societal challenge of an ageing population and the associated burden of non-communicable diseases related to obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The consortium brings together European researchers and datasets to build an empirical model of unhealthy ageing, with a longitudinal perspective, in which causal, bi-directional, mediating and confounding factors operate at a multi-dimensional level (Figure 1).
Description: Can I get hold of the data? Where can I find out more? The project is co-ordinated by the Centre for Life Course Health Research and the Northern Finland Cohort Project Centre at the University of Oulu in Finland. Further details on DynaHEALTH are available from the website: www.dynahealth.eu. The studies are approved by the local institutional review boards. Written informed consent has been obtained for participants. There is no central repository for the data and each participating cohort has its own policy for data sharing. The DynaHEALTH project legacy will be a collaborative action that will invite researchers with longitudinal life-course data to engage with us via the website (https://www.dynahealth.eu/contact). To ensure continuity, the relevant section of the website and a light governance will remain to bring sustainability to the consortium and support the testing of its scientific concept.
