Data Management & IT Platforms
Secure, traceable data to support research and decision-making
AIRID's Data Management & IT Platforms underpin the full research lifecycle—from laboratory assays and semi-field trials to field studies and surveillance. Robust data systems ensure that findings from vector control evaluations, insecticide testing, and public health studies are captured, validated, and available for analysis and reporting in line with GLP and international standards.
Role within AIRID
Data management at AIRID supports study directors, quality assurance, and operational teams by providing secure storage, version control, and audit trails for study data. This infrastructure is essential for regulatory submissions, WHO prequalification dossiers, and publication-ready evidence.
Data & IT Capabilities
Planned and existing capabilities include:
- Electronic data capture (EDC) for laboratory, semi-field, and field studies
- Secure, backed-up storage with access control and audit logging
- Integration with laboratory instruments and quality control systems
- Data validation, cleaning, and export for statistical analysis
- Support for GLP-compliant documentation and long-term archiving
Integration with AIRID Research
Data Management & IT Platforms connect across AIRID's facilities:
- Bioassay and testing laboratories — assay results, batch tracking, and QC data
- Experimental huts and semi-field platforms — entomological and behavioural data
- Field and community studies — surveillance, trial, and monitoring data
- Chemistry and molecular labs — analytical and genomic data
This integrated approach ensures that data from each stage of the evaluation pathway can be combined for robust, policy-relevant conclusions.
Further details on specific platforms, tools, and data access procedures will be published as the IT and data management systems are fully deployed.
