Aridhia (Aridhia Informatics Ltd) is a UK-based company created to provide solutions to accelerate the availability and use of health data for biomedical research and better patient outcomes. It helps clinical and life sciences pioneers in research hospitals, universities, pharmaceutical companies & global medical networks who want to advance their medical research and improve outcomes more quickly.[1][2][3]
Background
editAridhia was established in 2007, co-founded by current CEO Dr David Sibbald OBE and Professor Andrew Morris. The initial intention[4] of the company was to bring large-scale computing and analytics to healthcare and to bridge the gap between clinical research and how that knowledge contributes to day-to-day healthcare delivery.
It has spent many of the following years developing the Aridhia Digital Research Environment (DRE), an enterprise-grade trusted research environment (or TRE).
The company is headquartered in Glasgow, Scotland.
Approach
editAridhia works with research hospitals, global consortia, and pharmaceutical companies, providing a cloud-based healthcare research platform to help advance their medical research.
The Digital Research Environment
editThe Aridhia DRE (previously known as AnalytiXagility) is cloud-based PaaS/SaaS offering that addresses many of the common challenges associated with the scale and sustainability of biomedical data science. The DRE service is broadly split into two main segments:[5][6]
FAIR Data Services
editFAIR Data Services (FAIR) gives researchers and innovators the ability to discover and understand data through dataset search, classification, and efficient metadata browsing capabilities. Data is described via dataset catalogues, dictionaries, and associated attached assets. Researchers can request access to datasets, and data owners get access to configurable and orchestrated data governance, while making approval decisions within their own specialised pipelines. The name references the FAIR data principles.
Workspaces
editWorkspaces then allows for the collaborative analysis of healthcare research data. Principal investigators can invite a team of people into the secure boundary of their workspace, and that team can upload, access, and analyse project data while taking advantage of an audited environment furnished with analytical tools, scalable compute resources, and virtual desktops. Users can bring their own tooling and use private, localised Git repositories to support their modelling tools development and sharing.
The DRE operates within the Microsoft Azure cloud computing platform.[7]
Notable customers
editAridhia works with several organisations including:
Great Ormond Street Hospital
editIn 2017, Aridhia and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) began a long-term collaboration[8] to adopt the Aridhia DRE as the primary research platform for all GOSH research studies. The GOSH DRE provides access to data recorded over a period of more than 20 years, and is integrated with the hospital’s EPR system, which is provided by EPIC. The GOSH DRE is operated under the supervision of the Data Research, Innovation and Virtual Environments unit (DRIVE).[9]
Alzheimer's Disease Data Initiative
editThe AD Data Initiative[10] is a coalition of leading academic, advocacy, government, industry, and philanthropy organisations that recognises the need for dementia researchers to find easier ways to share unpublished data, analytical tools, and scientific findings.[11] The Aridhia DRE underpins their global cloud-based platform, the AD Workbench. The Workbench is available to users at no cost and is designed to empower researchers around the world to share, access and analyse data across platforms.[12][13]
Critical Path Institute
editCritical Path Institute (C-Path) is a non-profit organization created to improve the drug development process; its consortia include more than 1,600 scientists from government regulatory and research agencies, academia, patient organisations, and bio-pharmaceutical companies. Aridhia provides the basis of The Rare Disease Cures Accelerator-Data and Analytics Platform (RDCA-DAP®). RDCA-DAP is “an FDA-funded initiative that provides a centralized and standardized infrastructure to support and accelerate rare disease characterization with the goal of accelerating therapy development.”[14]
The Royal Marsden
editThe Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust is a specialist cancer treatment hospital in London. The DRE was used to develop BRIDgE (Biomedical Research Informatics Digital Environment), their platform designed for data analytics and AI development.[15]
