The NIH Biomedical Translational Research Information System (BTRIS) comprises a repository of clinical research data and a set of tools for NIH investigators to access those data. BTRIS data sources include the NIH Clinical Center’s past (1976-2004) and current (2004-present) electronic health record systems and a number of NIH institute systems, including two NCI systems (LabMatrix and C3D). Tools include a reporting facility for obtaining identifiable protocol-specific data from active clinical protocols and a query facility for obtaining de-identified data sets from across all active and terminated protocols. The presentation will describe the system architecture (including the BTRIS data model and ontology), the reporting and querying tools, and policy issues related to use and re-use of the data.
