Initial Consultation with the PEER Team

Before you start to develop your PEER portal it's important to have a clear direction for your project. Here and in our initial consultation we'll tell you a bit more about why we've created PEER, and share some key points for developing and clarifying your vision.

About PEER

PEER creators Genetic Alliance and Private Access designed PEER with a central question in mind: how can we help you and your community to transform health? This means that, from the start, PEER has been designed with the needs of communities in mind. How do we create a safe space to share health information or other sensitive data? How do we respect the diverse array of attitudes about data sharing within our communities? How do we continue to engage in research with our communities over time, yet not overwhelm our participants with consent after consent? With PEER, we hope that you'll be able to answer these questions and more.

In many ways, PEER is similar to other registry platforms. It has the same core features: a tool for data entry, a database of deidentified data, and a query feature that allows for inquiry and analysis within said database. However, whereas access to data in other registries is dependent on the privacy and access policy of the registry owner, to which participants must consent in advance, in PEER access to data is dependent on privacy and access settings chosen by the participants. Participants even choose access and sharing settings for their own contact information, which is stored within PEER separately from their health data. Most registries store contact information outside of their database, which, combined with static consent processes, makes it difficult to engage with interested participants.
