Data QUEST = Data + Community Research

Our Services

Using a community-based approach, we have established partnerships with 25 clinics across Washington and Idaho, in both rural and urban areas. These partnerships allow us to bridge health data and research, including information from underrepresented populations.

Data Warehouse

A centralized repository containing a limited data set from all primary care clinics in the network. The University of Washington has deemed all research using these data as not human subjects research, reducing the administrative and regulatory burden to researchers using these data.

Share Data

Data QUEST brings health data together across clinics, creating a standardized and accessible data network.

Share Research

We work with research teams to give them access to Data QUEST data, and to support their understanding of the clinics and patients represented in our dataset.

Connect Primary Care Clinics

We are a network of primary care clinics who are committed to improving health through research. All Data QUEST clinics contribute to research through data sharing and participating in the WWAMI region Practice and Research Network (WPRN).

What Data QUEST Provides

A dataset that fits your needs

Every research question requires a meaningful, customized dataset. We will help you specify what data you need to fit your research questions and help you understand the data.

Connections to clinic partners

We can help you connect with the WPRN which can facilitate working with clinic champions, clinicians, and patients in our clinics. The WPRN will help you engage our clinics effectively, and help in the conduct of your research.
