Make data usable

Turium provides the connective tendon between specialised IT systems for biomedical data. Out-of-the-box connections for any data storage system ensure that data of all formats can easily be integrated into a single platform.

• Automated data integration in any format (e.g., HL7, FHIR, CDISC, genomic file formats such as BAM or VCF, high-content image files)
• Open architecture and APIs for bi-directional connectivity to any system type and data formats (e.g., EHRs/EMRs)

Even when data is centralised, data standardisation projects can take years. Turium cut this process down to weeks, for both real world data and historic clinical trials data.

Protect data at all times

Healthcare institutions are trusted with the stewardship of highly sensitive data, and concerns around access, security, and management often prevent full use of this data. Turium gives our clients the tools to build a trusted research environment, with full transparency and controls over when, how, and why data is used in research.

• The Purpose Based Access Control module gives governance administrators an out-of-the-box framework for configuring Turium access controls to fit their unique policies.
• Our focus on privacy and security extends to our hosting approach. Turium also enables organisations to comply with various regulations and standards including GDPR, FISMA, HIPAA, and GxP.

All data in Turium remains owned by the customer—never by Turium.

Facilitate collaborative analytics

Turium helps accelerate studies by allowing researchers to use the tools they are comfortable with, while making it easier to collaborate and iterate.

• Point-and-click tool enables experts of all technical ability to quickly iterate on inclusion & exclusion criteria to define a patient population for further study.
• We’ve built Turium to be as open as possible for data science. Turium's native code workbook tool allows data scientists to jump between R, Python & SQL, and can easily be connected to custom high performance compute clusters to develop with specialised bioinformatics tools.
• Turium provides a framework for data science collaboration: models from across the organisation are stored in a central registry, and collaborators can easily review the methods and training data used in development. No matter where a model is used, Turium provides the management tools to track performance, control release management, and ensure good governance is maintained throughout its lifecycle.

Promote knowledge sharing

Increasing collaboration between scientific groups is critical for accelerating discovery. With Turium, researchers can discover past projects and get a head start from the cohorts, datasets, or logic created by their colleagues for their Knowledge Base

• Biostatisticians can easily template their code and promote it for platform publication, allowing their colleagues to leverage logic to kick start new analyses. Similarly, if clinicians define a disease or class of treatments with medical code lists, they can promote it for reuse across studies.
• Reproducibility is a key challenge in science, particularly when studies span data sources and institutions. Turium helps address this issue with automatic provenance tracking. Any research result, whether a dataset, model or visualisation, can be traced step-by-step back to the exact version of the raw data that was used to produce it.
