Title of project: 
Core Support for TwinsUK Cohort
Proposal summary: 

This proposal does not seek access to ALSPAC data, rather it proposes uses a clone copy of some of ALSPAC data processes and infrastructure in order to support the TwinsUK cohort. The processes and infrastructure in question relate to ALSPACs Data Linkage activities and the PEARL Data Safe Haven - the ISO27001 certified policies, procedures, infrastructure for the capture, processing and subsequent analysis of linked 3rd Party routine records with study collected data. Equivalent TwinsUK research and study administration needs would be managed by the PEARL team. ALSPAC and TwinsUK data would remain distinct through this time.
