[Population Modeling] Sources of public medical data

[Talitha Feenstra]

In addition, the following may also be of interest: 

GESIS provides a large repository of mainly socioeconomic datasets, but some also include medical data, e.g. on lifestyle. 

https://dbk.gesis.org/dbksearch/index.asp?db=e

Many of these are free and can be downloaded. 

Another highly interesting dataset is the SHARE study (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe), with panel-data information from a large number of EU countries. The survey population is aged 50+.

 I would also suggest the publically available portions of the C-Path CODR databases on Alzheimer’s disease and tuberculosis:

 Subject: [Population Modeling] Sources of public medical data
  
 Hi to all modelers working with public data, 
 Madhav was asking me yesterday about public sources of medical data.  
 I offered two well known pointers: 
 NHANES
 AHRQ
 Does anyone have other public sources they know about they wish to share with the group.
 It may help several of us sharing such knowledge of public repositories.  
            Jacob
