As head of a database in Public Health, you may want to share information about this database to researchers and experts in epidemiology and public health.

The epidemiology-France portal is a tool that will allow you to reference your database in its catalog, which contains the description of the main French health databases.

By completing an online form, you will specify the main features of your database and you will be able to provide further information, including links to visit (list of publications, etc.), or enclosing documents related to this database (reports, major publications, questionnaires etc.).

Once completed, you will be able to make a request for publication on the portal for your database.

After a quick validation procedure by the Portal team (consistency check), it will be published and appear in the catalog where it can be viewed by all visitors of the Portal.

In any case, your request for publication of a record in the Portal catalog is under your own responsibility.

An individual database includes data observed or collected at an observation unit (the individual in general). The resulting file consists of records (or rows) of individuals.

It may involve exposure to risk factors, one or more pathologies, the quality of life... There are no exclusion factors, except that the described database must  exist concretely so that it can be analysed.

A database can be linked (or not) to one or more assessment(s) carried out under research.

If in doubt about your database's compliance with these criteria, please contact the Portal team to discuss.

Go to your workspace to propose a new publication.

If you are registered as a contributor to the Portal, you can connect to your space contributor by entering your username and password.
