Data Sharing in numbers
The Whitehall II study has released aggregate and individual-level data for many research projects, including a large number of international consortia.
Up to November 2023 we received 372 data sharing applications for individual level data. Many of these applications were for external projects, ie, not involving authorship of Whitehall II researchers.
