The Biomedical Data Hub (BDH) curates and maintains strategic deidentified health data cohorts and supports researchers and innovators with expertise in bioinformatics and A.I. Its mission is to act as a trusted research node that unlocks the value of digital health data to support cutting edge science and digital health solutions that will benefit Singapore and Singaporeans. BDH is a national platform hosted by the Agency for Science Technology and Research (A.STAR) in partnership with Ministry of Health (MOH) Singapore and is funded by Singapore's National Research Foundation (NRF).

1) Forming and coordinating project-based teams to work on ecosystem data curation projects and on-boarding datasets into Biomedical Data Hub. You will push towards outcomes such as improved data quality, interoperability, and AI readiness of data to enable research an innovation. This could involve activities such as data clean-up, curation, transformation and ensuring adherence to minimum information standards. Team members maybe at BDH, A.STAR, other public sector agencies, or universities.
2) Forming and coordinating domain data working groups focused on standards identification for new data modalities or scientific/clinical domains. These working groups would decide on data standards to adopt to maximise data interoperability and reusability as well as resolve data curation issues.
Additionally, you will draw on insights gained in working with data and data owners to develop and implement strategies to level-up Singapore's data and data curation ecosystem.
