Collaborations and Consortia

We are committed to maximizing the use of Whitehall II data to advance scientific knowledge.  Up to end of March 2021 we received  363 data sharing applications for collaborative and non-collaborative projects as part of our data sharing of individual level data. There have been 67 applications to use Whitehall II data through DPUK, with 21 in 2021.

We have also released aggregate data for collaborative research projects, including international consortia.
