MOH has partnered the Smart Nation and Digital Government Office (SNDGO), Government Technology of Singapore (GovTech) and Integrated Health Information System (IHIS) to set up the TRUST national platform to provide researchers with research and real-world data managed by different research institutions and public sector agencies. This data is intended to support healthcare-related and public policy research and ranges from genomic to behavioural to socio-economic data. TRUST functions as a trusted data intermediary to allow for safe, expeditious and secure sharing of the data. 

NUS researchers who are interested to access/use TRUST data may like to visit the TRUST website here and register for a member account to view the TRUST data catalogue.

An updated version of the Data Access Request Form is also available from the TRUST website. The Data Request Agreement No. for NUS is MH108:05/60-1-DRA-NUS-001. Please email trust_data_concierge@moh.gov.sg if you need any assistance.
