Presentation of the Semantic Consent Code in the TMF Data Protection Working Group

At the last meeting of the TMF Data Protection Working Group, we presented the Semantic Consent Code, or SCC for short.

The Semantic Consent Code:

• consists of semantic axes: Class, Action, Purpose, Actor.
• enables the description of consent documents regardless of their structure and form
• creates a flexible and uniform basis for processing consent data.
• supports the practical application of patient consent to research data.
• Convertibility of existing consent codes to/from SCC successfully evaluated
