New year, still BETTER

We are getting back into work after a well deserved holiday.

In 2024 we got the BETTER Project off to a great start, both on the technical side and the communication side.

• Technical progress: The PADME software has been deployed among partners and the next step is to have it deployed at the clinical sites. A lot of work has also gone into data FAIRication and data handling, in order to work across institutions and have the same data structure regarding the same research topic.
• Webinars: We have hosted our first webinars to explore the subjects of federated learning and researching rare diseases. Events & Conferences: We have been to several events and conferences, which has lead us to new insights and exciting collaborations.

With such a great year in 2024, our goals for 2025 is first and foremost to continue what we have successfully started, and then we keep on keeping on!

• We have plenty of exciting techical developments planned for 2025: Our Use Case workshop at Terrassa in November was a great success and allowed us to plan our next technical steps in-person. In 2025 we are focusing on practical results moving the project from theory into practice!
• And we also have more dissemination and communications activities in the pipe line: Webinars, academic papers, work shops, and events.

It’s both productive and rewarding to work together with so many different people across country borders and expertises! We are appreciative for the EU HORIZON projects for giving us this opportunity!

All in all, 2024 was a great and productive year, and we believe that 2025 will be even better!
