In the landscape of medical research, the journey from patient recruitment to data acquisition has always been fraught with inefficiencies and ethical concerns. The complexities inherent in this process have led to delays, exorbitant costs, and a lack of transparency, escalating in a $100 B problem.

At Data Lake we have worked since 2019 to address these issues, and today we are proud to announce the official Public Launch of the Data Lake App, short for Data Lake Application! The Data Lake App is the first blockchain-based patient recruitment & consent management platform that will democratize medical research.

Keep reading to learn everything about it, how to use it today and how to apply to the Grant program!

🔬 The Data Lake App

The Data Lake App heralds a new era in medical research, serving as the premier blockchain-based global DeSci patient recruitment and consent management platform. Built on the Polygon Blockchain, the App offers researchers, healthcare providers, and patients a streamlined, GDPR-compliant environment for participation in medical research.

Here’s how it works:

Researcher Empowerment: Researchers can customize and publish their trials, create forms and surveys, and set bounties in LAKE tokens for participants, all in a GDPR-compliant environment that can be easily audited. The App enables researchers to track patient enrollment in real-time, ensuring timely and efficient data collection.
Healthcare Provider Engagement: Healthcare providers can browse research projects, evaluate bounties, and collect patient signatures from interested patients, fostering collaboration in medical research.
Patient-Centric Approach: Patients retain control over their data, managing consent and potentially receiving LAKE token bounties for participation.

Use the Data Lake App today!

The Data Lake App is officially available to researchers worldwide! To access it, visit app.data-lake.co and make sure you hold at least 10,000 LAKE tokens in your Ethereum wallet to unlock the enterprise features and publish your recruitment needs. LAKE is available on the Uniswap DEX on Ethereum (token contract: 0xf9ca9523e5b5a42c3018c62b084db8543478c400). You can also purchase it using a credit card through our dApp at dapp.data-lake.co.
