#### The LEOSS.sero-survey platform
#### The LEOSS.sero-survey platform
The envisioned platform offers research groups the possibility to jointly evaluate anonymised data from various studies of different origins. This helps to increase statistical significance and study robustness. This drives the need for a commonly accessible data management. Virtual resources of the Helmholtz Association can be used for that. In this context, a data management system is being provided as a pilot project within HIFIS by the [Helmholtz Centre Berlin (HZB)](https://www.helmholtz-berlin.de/).
