| Sumario: | The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has demonstrated once again that rapid collaborative research is essential for the future of biomedicine. Large research networks are needed to collect, share, and reuse data and biosamples to generate collaborative evidence. However, setting up such networks is often complex and time-consuming, as common tools and policies are needed to ensure interoperability and the required flows of data and samples, especially for handling personal data and the associated data protection issues. In biomedical research, pseudonymization detaches directly identifying details from biomedical data and biosamples and connects them using secure identifiers, the so-called pseudonyms. This protects privacy by design but allows the necessary linkage and reidentification. |
