ENETS DB Governance
The ENETS Database is governed by a collaborative framework, where the ENETS DB Core Working Group, appointed by the ENETS Executive Committee, works closely with the ENETS Office and our technical provider, KKS. Together, these groups ensure the database’s effective management and continuous development. All project requests related to the ENETS DB are thoroughly reviewed and supported by the ENETS DB Review and Support Board, ensuring a unified approach to advancing neuroendocrine tumor research.
ENETS DB Core Working Group
The ENETS DB is managed by the ENETS DB Core Working Group. The members of the ENETS DB Core Working Group are appointed by the ENETS Executive Board.
Tasks of the ENETS DB Core Working Group:
- Sets up levels 1 and 2 in the database
- Acts as a data protection commission
- Monitors data security measurements
- Implements and monitors ethics requirements
- Monitors quality results
- Initiates a review procedure in the event of potential quality issues
- Ensures that no data is transferred from the participating center into the database prior to the signing of the collaboration contract between ENETS e.V. and the CoE
- Arbitrates any potential disputes that may arise.
The ENETS DB Core Working Group reports all activities to the ENETS Executive Committee.
